I built python 3.13.0b3 on Arch linux in the same way as python 3.12.4.

I notice a change in the repl apart from the obvious colour changes.

In 3.12.4 the repl history extends back in time to previous usage of python  
so up arrow brings back statements from a previous run.

In python 3.13.0b3 the up arrow doesn’t seem to bring back statements from  
the previous python run. I checked with my previous build of python 3.13.0b2  
and it seems this is a change between 3.13.0b2 and b3.

Is there some change in the way I need to build python 3.13 or is  
there a way to recover this useful behaviour.

EDIT: I find that python 3.13.0b3 can see history of previous runs of different pythons, but seems to clear history at exit.
