Show HN: Script to add last sudo commands to sudoers config.

Somethings are supposed to be painful. If you put to many commands that should have root privileges with no password, you do two things. 1 you load the gun to shoot your self in the foot because you took the safety off. 2 if you forget to lock your session and walk away, anyone can do root things you added to sudo config.

I would suggest if you absolutely need non root users to do things manage it with groups. That is one of the reasons groups exist. Don’t use the sudo group as a dumping ground for random commands as if you need to revoke a users permission you have to edit sudo config to lock certain commands down to specific users. What you need is a group. So then if a user needs permission add them to the group, when you need to revoke permissions remove them from the group.
