After following these instructions to update Bash and set it as my default shell on MacOS, I found that it didn't have any effect on the integrated terminal in VSCode. As shown by:
echo $0
which returned /bin/bash
instead of /opt/homebrew/bin/bash
.
and
echo $BASH_VERSION
which returned 3.2.57(1)-release
instead of 5.1.12(1)-release
(or later).
Applying the same instructions inside VSCode, using sudo
on chsh
and setting "Terminal > integrated > Default Profile: Osx" to "Bash" all didn't have any effect.
How do I fix this?
Short instructions
Download newest Bash version using Homebrew:
brew install bash
.Whitelist updated version (path:
/opt/homebrew/bin/bash
) to/etc/shells
using Vim.Set as default shell using
chsh -s /opt/homebrew/bin/bash
.

Simply add the following line to settings.json
(which can be found inside settings) to override the original path:
// "...",
"terminal.integrated.shell.osx": "/opt/homebrew/bin/bash",
// "...",
