Terminal: "tabTitle" does not work in version 0.2.1831.0 (from Windows Store), but works in version 0.0.1.0 (from Github)

[Luuk34]

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18362.239]
Windows Terminal (as named in subject)
0.2.1831.00 from Windows Store
0.0.1.0 from Github

Steps to reproduce

Start Windows Terminal after adding "tabTitle" to the config
(lines like: "tabTitle" : "tab1", )

Expected behavior

Show title as named in "tabTitle" (in this example show "tab1"

Actual behavior

In version 0.2.1831.0 the tag "tabTitle" is removed from the config directly when starting WindowsTerminal, and the full path to the started application is show, and not the short "tabTitle"

In version 0.0.1.0 (from Github) all works OK

Question:

• What about this confusing version numbers? what's newer than wat, what's better than what, and how is this supposed to work OK, when finally released?

public store builds

the higher the number, the better
check the releases page to see what's changed

dev build

it'll always be 0.0.1.0, don't read into it

tabTitle

it's not in 0.2.1831.0.

Should this issue be reopened if the issue is still present in 0.2.1831.0 (store preview) but not in the build from source?

[DHowett-MSFT]

It’s not in 0.2.1831.0, so no? It will never be in 0.2.1831.0. We do not reuse version numbers.

I'm a little confused about whether your comments mean that the bug isn't there (setting not working) or the feature isn't there (setting not implemented yet)
I'm running 0.2.1831.0 and adding a tabTitle setting does nothing. It works when I build from source though

[DHowett-MSFT]

The feature has not yet been incorporated in a version released to the store.
