Conda Activate env, integrated terminal doesn't use the correct python

Environment data

• VS Code version: 1.38.0
• OS and version: macOS Catalina 10.15
• Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): Anaconda 3
• Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | …): Conda env 3.7

Expected behaviour

Setting conda activate env within the integrated terminal should change the python interpreter to that specific env python.

Actual behaviour

The env being used by integrated terminal, is still the default python of osx and not that of the env activated.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install vs code 2- Install Anaconda 3- Create a new anaconda env 4- Run vscode 5- Start integrated terminal (no need for creating a project) 6- Do a Conda activate env. (where env is the name of the created env) 7- Do python --version 8- The python will still be the default osx python and not that of the env.

Turning it to false, fixing the issue in macOS

This issue looks like a dup of https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-python/issues/6343. Quoting the workaround,

• This is a known issue in VS Code and we’re in the process of resolving this. More info can be found here https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_36#_launch-terminals-with-clean-environments

As a temporary solution please change the setting terminal.integrated.inheritEnv to false as outlined in https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_36#_launch-terminals-with-clean-environments

We can close this.
