zsh multiline import broken

[conradludgate]

I entered echo \<NEWLINE>bar into my zsh terminal, and the resulting ~/.zsh_history entry contained the lines

: 1620636746:0;echo \\
bar

With two \ tokens. The current import isn't taking this into account. The command is saved with both \\ characters and is interpreted differently.

This possibly impacts bash import too.

Note, any new entries don't have this issue. This is only for import

I've been bitten by this, and worked around it with a hacky solution. It replaces every slash followed by a newline with just the newline. It is not idempotent, and will cause damage if run more than once.

sqlite3 --box ~/.local/share/atuin/history.db <<- 'SQL'
begin;
update history
   set command = replace(command, '\' || X'0A', X'0A')
 where command like '%\' || X'0A' || '%'
;
select changes();
rollback;
SQL

Change the rollback to commit to make the changes stick. I then had to reload zsh.
