I havent .bashrc file in my home folder

Question

I added a new user, and logged in as it, but in home folder of my user didn't contain a .bashrc file. why didn't this file get created? Note that a .bash_history file did get created.

Answer 1

Either You created user by using some simple command that does not copy the skeleton for user directory

Or the skeleton directory in /etc/skel does not contain the .bashrc file

Answer 2

This is not a problem. You can create the file if you need to customize your settings.
