Was working on a server where I did not want to put some dumb command into the history, so I add a space like you do. Press up. The command is there. The fucking insult I felt.

It's disabled by default, but you can enable it in .bashrc and then delete that edit session using a spaced command.

it also depends on the shell, in zsh it persists on local history but does not get written to history file
