Steps to reproduce

I have a an entry in my history file for python manage.py startapp (see screenshot 2). The current size of history file is 484 KB with ~10,000 lines. This most recent entry for this line is present at 5006 line number. I am not aware how far up the history query goes, judging by this comment I suppose it's the last 1 MB. If that's so, I would expect that PSReadline would suggest me this entry.

Expected behavior

PSReadline doesn't suggest me the line entry (see screenshot 1 above)

Actual behavior

PSReadline should suggest me the line entry

The maximum history entries read from the history file is controlled by Set-PSReadLineOption -MaximumHistoryCount. By default, MaximumHistoryCount is 4096, same as the automatic variable $MaximumHistoryCount of the PowerShell session.
In your case, please set it to a larger number, so that the history entry you want can be included in.
