Package: bash
Version: 3.1dfsg-8
GNU Midnight Commander uses HISTCONTROL=ignorespace to hide some
commands issued to bash like setting of the prompt or xterm title using
escape sequences. Due to HISTCONTROL=ignoredups hardcoded in .bashrc,
mc polutes .bash_history on each directory change.
A possible fix is to check if HISTCONTROL is already set to ignorespace,
and in that case, promote it to ignoreboth:
if [ "$HISTCONTROL" = "ignorespace" ] ; then
export HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth
else
export HISTCONTROL=ignoredups
fi
