Description

Describe the bug

Description

When running dotnet watch run through concurrently, pressing Ctrl+C
does not return control to the shell.

The same command exits correctly when run directly, and it also exits
correctly when concurrently is run with --raw.

Reproduction

Environment:

  • OS: Debian 13
  • concurrently: 10.0.5
  • .NET SDK: 10.0.400
  • .NET runtime: 10.0.11
  • Architecture: x64

Run:

npx concurrently "dotnet watch run"

Research direction

Start by reproducing npx concurrently "dotnet watch run" on Debian and compare Ctrl+C behavior with running the command directly and with concurrently --raw. Trace how concurrently handles termination signals for the child process; done means Ctrl+C returns control to the shell without requiring --raw.
