Git branch in prompt out of sync

[sbungert-mms]

Hi.

This is my termnals config

{
  "autorun": false,
  "autokill": true,
  "terminals": [
    {
      "name": "MonoRepo",
      "description": "Starts the MonoRepo dev server",
      "cwd": "/Users/path/to/folder/3",
      "open": false,
      "focus": true
    },
    {
      "name": "MonoRepo 2",
      "description": "Use for installing packages or doing other things to the MonoRepo",
      "cwd": "/Users/path/to/folder/3",
      "open": false,
      "focus": false
    },
    {
      "name": "PWA",
      "description": "PWA App",
      "cwd": "/Users/path/to/folder/2",
      "open": false,
      "focus": false
    },
    {
      "name": "PWA tests",
      "description": "Run tests on the PWA App",
      "cwd": "/Users/path/to/folder/2",
      "open": false,
      "focus": false
    },
    {
      "name": "COMP",
      "description": "Shared Components lib",
      "cwd": "/Users/path/to/folder/1",
      "open": false,
      "focus": false
    },
    {
      "name": "COMP Tests",
      "description": "Run tests on the Shared Components lib",
      "cwd": "/Users/path/to/folder/1",
      "open": false,
      "focus": false
    },
    {
      "name": "COMP SB",
      "description": "Shared Components lib Storybook",
      "cwd": "/Users/path/to/folder/1",
      "open": false,
      "focus": false
    }
  ]
}

And i have the following in my .bash_profile

###############################
# Show git branch in terminal #
###############################

function gitBranch() {
    GIT_BRANCH="$(git branch 2>/dev/null | grep '^*' | colrm 1 2)"

    if [ -n "$GIT_BRANCH" ]; then
        echo "($GIT_BRANCH)"
    fi
}

PS1='\[\e[0;1;38;5;70m\]\u:\[\e[m\] \[\e[0;1;38;5;32m\]\w\[\e[m\] \[\e[0;1;38;5;167m\]$(gitBranch)\[\e[m\] \[\e[0m\]\$\[\e[m\] \[\e0'

Any terminals made with the terminals manager do not update the git branch if I change the branch via VSCode's statusbar. If I change the branch via terminal, VSCode's status bar does not update.

This behaviour does not occur if I create a terminal with the new terminal button native to VSCode. Is there something I can add to my terminals settings to keep the branch up-to-date?

Mac OS Catalina VSCode 1.53.2 Terminals Manager 1.12.9

This does not occur on Ubuntu.

I'm not sure how this issue could be related to the extension, perhaps the extension should set different environment variables or something 🤔
