Description
In the previous version of GitHub desktop client I could specify PowerShell as the shell to launch for a given project, and it gave me cool information in the command line about the current state of the repo (if I was ahead/behind, conflicts, changes, etc.). There is no longer an option for me to select PowerShell in the new version. There is a drop down in advanced options for shell, but it only has "Command prompt" in it.
Version
GitHub Desktop version: 1.0.4
OS version: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.15063]
Steps to Reproduce
- Launch the client
- Go to File -> Options and click on the Advanced tab
- Click the drop down for Shell.
Expected: A number of shells are available (cmd, ps, bash, etc.)
Actual: only cmd is available.
- Launch the cmd shell for a project.
Expected: it gives data about the local branch vs. tracking branch in the command line
Actual: it does not.
Expected behavior: That I can use PowerShell for git through github desktop client and that it gives me information in the shell about the branch.
Actual behavior: It is not possible and I can only use a command prompt with no info.
Reproduces how often: 100%
