Anyone else have their zsh history get truncated occasionally? Not sure where in my setup the issue is but sometimes the history file will just be recreated. I have all the histsize and other env vars set correctly and I haven’t been able to correlate it to anything in particular I’m doing when it happens
Occasionally happens to me too. I believe I researched the cause being some kind of history corruption (eg bad control characters mistakenly pasted/output), and zsh will just make new history file if it detects corruption.
Now, I made myself a cron script that once a day just copies the history file to a backup folder, so that I can bring it back if it ever corrupts.
