[Solved] 'sed: illegal option -- r usage' error in Visual Studio Code | Mac

Problem:

I updated my visual studio Application on my mac but when I am trying to run a command i got an error in every command-

sed: illegal option -- r
usage: sed script [-Ealn] [-i extension] [file ...]
       sed [-Ealn] [-i extension] [-e script] ... [-f script_file] ... [file ...]

Solution:

Until VS Code Solve this issue you can try this solution-

First Install gsed

brew install gnu-sed

Then make a symbolic link to gsed

cd /usr/local/bin

ln -s gsed sed

When VSCode fixes the issue just delete the symbolic link, and uninstall gsed.

Note: This solution is only for mac users
