Description
redirected here from closed issue https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/80434
The bug appeared after one of few last updates.
When integrated terminal starts it uses custom profile (as expected),
but after python script is started it loads profile from ~/.bashrc
In my settings.json I have the following settings:
"terminal.integrated.shellArgs.osx": [
"--rcfile", "/Volumes/DISK/projs/TechStuff/settings/profile"
],
"terminal.integrated.env.osx": {"HISTFILE":"/dev/null"},
"terminal.integrated.setLocaleVariables": false,

Expected behaviour
using custom profile (environment)
Actual behaviour
using standard profile (environment), after starting python script
Steps to reproduce:
- Assign custom profile to integrated terminal settings.(and restart maybe)
- Open page(tab) with any python script and open integrated terminal.
(You can put string like echo 'bashrc loaded' in profile file to see it loads) - Check profile - it is cutom.
- Debug python script (F5 or Debug -> Start Debugging) - it loads bashrc profile instead of custom
- Check which profile is loaded (can use printenv command if you set different env. variables or check echo print as mentioned above) - standard profile loaded.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with the listed terminal.integrated.shellArgs.osx settings, a custom --rcfile, and a Python debug launch using F5. Compare the environment from the integrated terminal with the environment after debugging starts. Done means the debug-launched process preserves the configured custom profile rather than loading ~/.bashrc.
