Just so everyone is on the same page; when it comes to VS Code you can set which shell you’d like do use in settings.json
(where WSL and git-cmd needs to be installed).
WSL
"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Windows\\System32\\wsl.exe",
PowerShell
"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Windows\\system32\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\powershell.exe",
cmd
"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe",
git-cmd
"terminal.integrated.shell.windows": "C:\\Program Files\\Git\\git-cmd.exe",
