Description

Versions:
Hyper: 3.0.2
macOS: 10.15.6

I searched for this issue and couldn't find much. I deleted my hyper config file, so it's stock.

When I open Hyper, my .bash_profile doesn't load, so my prompt isn't customized and shortcuts I have in there don't work. However, executing the .bash_profile through . .bash_profile loads it and everything works fine.

The DevTools aren't showing any errors in the console.

Has anyone run into this? Any ideas how to even start decomposing this?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on Hyper 3.0.2 with macOS 10.15.6 and a customized .bash_profile. Compare opening Hyper with manually running . .bash_profile, using the DevTools console to check for errors. Done means .bash_profile loads on startup so the customized prompt and shortcuts work without manual sourcing.
