yes macos main branch...

you can rm the history .... then it 100% reporduce

Actually, the issue is more that it's a specific test that is altering the history. We should just fix _run_repl in test_pyrepl.py to be sure that we don't overwrite the existing history (I will take care of this).

not enough I checked it and there is quite some test affect the history

FYI:

These test all affect it and I spend quite some time for it...but the fix is not simple so maybe I goto a wrong way
and left issue here

hope this can do a little help

Why don't we just use a temporary .python_history file when running regrtest?
