.mongorc.js not respected

      mongosh --help indicates that --no-rc can be used to not run the .mongorc.js file on start up. However, It doesn’t appear to be respected for me no matter what:

       

      ❯ cat ~/.mongorc.js
      function foo(){print("bar")}❯ mongo> foo()
      bar
      > ^C
      bye❯ mongosh

      Using MongoDB:      4.2.7
      Using Mongosh Beta: 0.0.8For more information about mongosh, please see our docs: https://docs.mongodb.com/mongodb-shell/> foo()
      ReferenceError: foo is not defined
      
      

      Being able to format cursors / arrays as CSV (like this) is an important part of my MongoDB shell use cases. 

       

      Thanks for looking into it.
