Title:
  Bash $HISTFILESIZE seems far too small by default.

Status in “bash” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “bash” package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: bash

  I would simply like to suggest a much larger history length by
  default.  500 commands is quite small and I know of no technical
  reason a much larger number would be unreasonable.

  I like to use 10000 myself.  It can be VERY useful to recover a
  complicated command from months in the past.

  Thanks.
