Improve the bash history
If you use two bash sessions at the same time, which ever you close second will write over the commands you’ve typed in the first one. That means that your history is lost for one of the sessions. Annoying to say the least. Luckily there is a way to fix this.

Open your .bashrc file as detailed above and add the lines:


shopt -s histappend
PROMPT_COMMAND='history -a'

This will append any new history to the existing file rather than rewriting it, as well as adding to the history every time the prompt is shown. Now, all your history will be saved!
