Doesn't show any history prior to install

[JVMartin]

Zsh version:

zsh 5.8 (x86_64-ubuntu-linux-gnu)

Ubuntu version:

Ubuntu 20.04 Focal

Top terminal is showing history | grep kubectl.

Bottom terminal shows McFly has no knowledge of any pre-existing history prior to its installation, for some unknown reason.

Is there supposed to be somewhere in the instructions where it shows you how to pull in prior history? It doesn't show any history prior to the installation of McFly.

Trying to figure this out on my own, this doesn't work either:

Have you customized anything about your zsh history settings? What does echo $HISTFILE say, and what is the format?

[JVMartin]

@cantino I believe I am using totally default "oh my zsh" installation.

jacob@jacob-xps:~ » echo $HISTFILE
/home/jacob/.zsh_history

jacob@jacob-xps:~ » head $HISTFILE                                                                                                                                                                           3:06 PM

It's possible that #221 will fix this.

You could try updating to the latest release and deleting the ~/.mcfly directory and see if that helps.

Just installed latest version 0.5.12 and still am unable to see any of my history :cry:

[JVMartin]

Oops, I'm a dumbass and neglected the rm -rf ~/.mcfly piece - after doing that, I see my history! Yay! Thank you. :pray:

[cantino]

I'm glad it's fixed for you!
