Pull Request Overview
This PR enhances conda environment management by adding sourcing status detection and improving shell activation support. The changes introduce a new system to determine whether conda is already active in the current shell and provide better shell-specific activation commands.
- Adds
CondaSourcingStatusclass to track conda initialization state - Refactors shell activation command generation to use sourcing information
- Introduces detection of global and shell-specific conda activation scripts

Implementing better PowerShell version logging for activation debugging as requested in issue #706. The issue stems from the PR review comment (#693 (comment)) suggesting that logging PowerShell version information would be valuable for debugging activation failures, especially given the differences between Windows PowerShell 5.x and PowerShell 7+. ## Changes Made: - [x] Analyze current PowerShell activation flow in pwshStartup.ts and pwshEnvs.ts - [x] Examine existing logging patterns and utilities - [x] Test current build/compile state of project - [x] Create utility function to detect PowerShell version via `$PSVersionTable.PSVersion.Major` - [x] Add PowerShell version logging to relevant activation code paths - [x] Add version logging for both conda and non-conda activation scenarios - [x] Ensure logging follows existing patterns (traceInfo/traceVerbose) - [x] Test changes and verify proper logging output - [x] Use shorter -c flag instead of -Command for PowerShell commands ## Implementation Details: 1. **Added `getPowerShellVersion()` function** - Detects PowerShell major version using `$PSVersionTable.PSVersion.Major` command with `-c` flag 2. **Enhanced installation logging** - Now logs PowerShell version when shells are detected (e.g., "SHELL: pwsh is installed (version 7)") 3. **Enhanced activation script error messages** - PowerShell errors now include version info (e.g., "Failed to activate Python environment (PowerShell 7): error details") ## Testing: - All existing unit tests pass (128 passing) - Code compiles successfully with no lint errors - Manual testing confirms PowerShell version detection works correctly These changes provide better diagnostic information for debugging PowerShell activation issues without affecting existing functionality.
