Things That I Discovered

1. Running a job in container on GitHub Actions

• Recently, I had to run a job on GitHub Actions in a container, ended up writing a TIL for that here.

2. Set Unlimited Bash History

• Unlimited Bash history? Well, why not? Sometimes, I find myself scratching my head trying to find a command that I had run a long time ago!

• We need to set HISTSIZE & HISTFILESIZE variables of Bash to -1.

• To make it permanent for an user, we can set HISTSIZE & HISTFILESIZE variables in ~/.bashrc file.

• Reference: bash - Linux Manpages Online
