chsh to powershell breaks the integrated terminal #25035
Description
- VSCode Version: Version 1.11.2 (1.11.2)
- OS Version: macOS 10.12.4
Steps to Reproduce:
- Install powershell on macOS. Add it to list of shells and set it as default terminal with
chsh. (my current setup) - Run vscode and try to open the interactive terminal.
Expected
Terminal opens and shows powershell
Actual
Terminal crashes, because my settings now looks like this:
// The path of the shell that the terminal uses on OS X.
"terminal.integrated.shell.osx": "/usr/local/bin/powershell",
// The command line arguments to use when on the OS X terminal.
"terminal.integrated.shellArgs.osx": [
"-l"
],
And -l is not a valid powershell flag.
PowerShell equivalent of it is -noprofile.

Yeah this was one of the issues moving it over to run as a login shell by default. I think hard coding it to be either
-lor-noprofilewill be equally as confusing though. Right now the recommendation is to override yourshellArgsto be[]if you're running powershell.
