Why is @file{~/.sh_history} file on the remote host growing?
Due to @command{ksh} saving tilde expansions triggered by
@value{tramp}, the history file is probably growing rapidly. To fix,
turn off saving history by putting this shell code in the
@file{.kshrc} file:
Due to the remote shell saving tilde expansions triggered by
@value{tramp}, the history file is probably growing rapidly.
@value{tramp} can suppress this behaviour with the user option
@code{tramp-histfile-override}. When set to @code{t}, environment
variable @env{HISTFILE} is unset, and environment variables
@env{HISTFILESIZE} @env{HISTSIZE} are set to 0.
Alternatively, @code{tramp-histfile-override} could be a string.
Environment variable @env{HISTFILE} is set to this file name then. Be
careful when setting to @file{/dev/null}; this might result in
undesired results when using @command{bash} as remote shell.
Another approach is to disable @value{tramp}'s handling of the
@env{HISTFILE} at all by setting @code{tramp-histfile-override} to
@code{nil}. In this case, saving history could be turned off by
putting this shell code in the @file{.bashrc} or @file{.kshrc} file:
@example
@group
