Why custom history file specified with "
HISTFILE" option in.bashrcscript in not populating ? Instead of that users.historyfile is populating.[test@example ~]$ more .bashrc # .bashrc # Source global definitions if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then . ~/.bashrc fi # User specific aliases and functions export HISTFILE=/var/log/history/.test_bash_history export HISTFILESIZE=5000 export HISTSIZE=5000 export HISTTIMEFORMAT="%F %T "
