I used to be able to invoke an fzf search with CTRL+R in bash. However, last night I killed my home dir by accident. I had to rebuild. However, now fzf CTRL+R doesn't work, all I get is the standard history search. My bashrc does include

[ -f ~/.fzf.bash ] && source ~/.fzf.bash

Originally, I think I had installed fzf through a vim plugin. But I'm not understanding what the problem is now. Anyway, the fzf history search was very convenient, I would like to get it back.

Rerun the install script.

You mean from vim? Could you point me in the direction of the install
script?

worth noting that my macOS bash environment didn't come with .bashrc, but rather .bash_profile. So my CTRL-R didn't work until I merged the two, by sourcing .bashrc from .bash_profile as discussed here: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/51036/what-is-the-difference-between-bash-profile-and-bashrc#comment417289_51038
