History.length

[tommoor]

It would be great to have some way of inspecting the history, I'd like to be able to do something like the following:

if (history.length > 0) {
  history.goBack();
} else {
  // display something else
}

Length would be enough, but others might find a method to return the history stack itself useful? Perhaps I'm missing an API - but really can't see anything exposed in the docs.

Some earlier discussions: remix-run/react-router#843, #89, remix-run/react-router#767, remix-run/react-router#1376 (comment).

Unfortunately there's a lot of complexity in doing this right now, so we don't have a really great way forward on this.
