vscode terminal shows two activate environments

[deven367]

Type: Bug

Behaviour

Expected vs. Actual

I use miniforge on my Macbook (M2 pro) and I have multiple virtual environments, once the environments are setup, vscode remembers the environment preferences for certain projects and activates them automatically when a terminal is launched in that workspace. In that process, vscode displays two active environments.

The expected behavior would to be to only display the active working environment.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install miniforge
2. create a new conda env, once miniforge is installed
3. Launch a project, and then set the environment preference for vscode.
4. Launch the terminal to the see the problem.

Also, this is an active issue in the miniforge repo as well, conda-forge/miniforge#539

I have the same problem.

VScode terminal displays multiple virtual environments as follows:

(helloworld-example) (py310) ➜ helloworld

As stated in #22233, the problem will be solved with #22128.
