I'm a new Beaglebone Black user running

from a Samsung Pro 32 GB micro SDHC card.  How fun!  I added a new Ubuntu 
user and found that the bash history wasn't being saved between sessions.  
Seems /etc/skel/.bashrc defines,

HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth
HISTSIZE=1000
HISTFILESIZE=2000

but these environment variables don't exist yet.  Need to edit the bash 
template and any existing user ~/.bashrc files to include the export 
command,

export HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth
export HISTSIZE=1000
export HISTFILESIZE=2000
