Pycharm terminal does not use the updated /bin/bash shell on macOS

I had already run chsh -s /bin/bash and the changes have taken effect for Terminal and iTerm[2] but not in PyCharm . I even closed PyCharm and ran that command directly in the included Terminal (which has decided it wants to continue using zsh):

% chsh -s /bin/bash
Changing shell for stephenboesch.
Password for stephenboesch: 
chsh: no changes made
% echo $SHELL
/bin/zsh
stephenboesch@stephenb cscp % 

So how can Pycharm terminal be convinced to switch over to /bin/bash ?

You can manually set which shell to use in PyCharm's terminal under Tools > Terminal > Shell path in settings.

Changes to your default shell will also be detected automatically if you log-out and log back in again.
