feature request: replace history with corrected command. about thefuck HOT 8 CLOSED

Cool, but maybe it is decided by the shell?

from thefuck.

To avoid adding the fuck commands to history, you can use the following in Bash:

export HISTIGNORE=' *'

Then any command prefixed with a space will not be added to history. So instead of typing fuck, you would need to type fuck (with a space as the first character), and it will not be added to the shell's history.

I use zsh, and It seems that the HISTIGNORE trick it's not working. (but It's not so important I've already set to not save duplicates).

I think thefuck could execute "history" command to update the history. I've not tested it but man says:

history change newValue ?event?
Replaces the value recorded for an event with newValue. Event
specifies the event to replace, and defaults to the current event
(not event -1). This command is intended for use in commands that
implement new forms of history substitution and wish to replace the
current event (which invokes the substitution) with the command
created through substitution.

is it cross-shell compatible? :\

I was just about to suggest this. 👍

Avoiding adding fuck commands can at least be configured per shell, whereas adding the modified commands cannot. Ideally the original command would also be left intact (in case thefuck was wrong). Removing the fuck command from within thefuck could be difficult without some hack.

While fc can work differently in different shells, the example below works great in bash - removing the fc command from history while keeping the original and modified commands in the history. In zsh the example works the same, except the fc command remains in history.

$ ls -l /usr
$ fc -e- /usr=/etc

History in bash afterward:

ls -l /usr
ls -l /etc

Implemented for zsh and bash in 1.35+

Awesome, @nvbn! Thanks! As soon as I have some spare time I can dig this one and implement it for Fish.

from thefuck.

The solution to this issue Fish-wise depends on fish-shell/fish-shell#825 available in the upcoming release, [Fish 2.2.0](/fish-shell/fish-shell/milestones/fish 2.2.0). I'll keep an eye on that and update the fuck Fish function as soon as that's released.

So now it works.
