Everytime I open a new Terminal on my Mac, I get a line like this:
2017-03-20 15:35:19 +00:00
``` text
Last login: Thu Nov 25 09:07:55 on ttys004
```

This annoys me. I don't care when I last opened a local Terminal.

To hide this "Last login" message when logging in to bash you need to create a file in your homedirectory.

``` shell
touch ~/.hushlogin
```

With this `.hushlogin` file in place you won't see the "Last login" message and go directly to your prompt, where you want to be.
