tmux — unlimited history?

Question

In your .tmux.conf file you can set the window history with something like:

set -g history-limit 4096

Is there a way to set an unlimited history for each window?

Answer 1

From what I can tell, you can only do this in a "practical" fashion, by setting the history to an absurdly large number. e.g.:

set -g history-limit 999999999
