I'm using a GNU bash from Nix ~/.nix-profile/bin/bash instead of Mac preinstalled /bin/bash and it never was a problem with iTerm2 - it allows to specify any shell I like as a part of terminal profile. I don't think that adding specific user Nix profile path to /etc/shells is a correct solution, so it would be nice if Warp allowed to specify a custom shell in addition to usage of the default user shell.

Hey Folks! You can now specify the startup shell on Warp version v0.2023.03.14.08.03.stable_01!

Go to Settings > Features > Session and you should see a dropdown for "Startup shell for new sessions" with options for Default, ZSH, BASH, or Custom.
