Description
When using VSCode GitHub Copilot Agent and allowing it to run commands in the terminal (Ubuntu in WSL2), it keeps the agent hanging and does not continue after a command it executed.
Seems when I deactivate bash-git-prompt it solves the issue.

Research direction
No specific files or tests are named. Start by reproducing the VSCode GitHub Copilot Agent terminal hang on Ubuntu in WSL2 with bash-git-prompt enabled, then compare it with the prompt deactivated and review the linked VSCode issue. Done means the agent continues after commands while the prompt remains enabled, with a regression check for the reported environment.
