PAM_GETENV(8) User Contributed Perl Documentation PAM_GETENV(8)NAME
pam_getenv - get environment variables from /etc/environment
SYNOPSIS
pam_getenv [-l] [-s] env_var
DESCRIPTION
This tool will print out the value of env_var from /etc/environment. It will attempt to expand environment variable references in the
definition of env_var but will fail if PAM items are expanded.
The -l option indicates the script should return an environment variable related to default locale information.
The -s option indicates that the script should return an system default environment variable.
Currently neither the -l or -s options do anything. They are included because future versions of Debian may have a separate repository for
the initial environment used by init scripts and for system locale information. These options will allow this script to be a stable
interface even in that environment.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it
