After installing osx 10.15 my .bash_profile stopped working. When I open a new terminal it says:
[code] The default interactive shell is now zsh. To update your account to use zsh, please run `chsh -s /bin/zsh`. For more details, please visit https://support.apple.com/kb/HT208050. [/code]
I tried changing to zsh and was fine. But since my .bashrc has code not compatible with zsh, I switched over back to bash. Here are the steps to make sure bash reads your .bashrc file.
1. Install brew. 2. brew install bash 3. Open Terminal -> Preferences -> Profiles -> click on your default one -> Shell -> check “Run command” and paste exec /usr/local/bin/bash –init-file $HOME/.bashrc 4. Close the Profiles window 5. Open a new terminal
If all goes well, you will see the terminal executes the command you pasted, and your .bashrc settings should be in the environment. Check using env | sort.
