"The default shell in Debian is Bash, which is a modern implementation of the older Bourne Shell (sh). Bash was developed by the GNU Project, which is also responsible for most of the basic commands widely used on a Linux system. On a Debian system, the default shell used by the system is specified in the /etc/passwd file. A default Debian installation provides Bash and tcsh as available shells."
