Description: \set HISTCONTROL ignoredups doesn't work in psql
Details:
In psql, doing:
\set HISTCONTROL ignoredups
select 1;
select 1;
select 1;
select 1;
select 1;
adds every select statement into the history, instead of ignoring the
duplicate statements.

Can you please let us know the environment? If it is psql on Windows, then I
think it is the cmd.exe thats storing that history for you and not psql
itself.
