   seems similar to #19935. We should add a note in the logs / prompt that we are selecting the existing environment. This investigation could also determine a different direction in terms of the mentioning

   I think think we may close this. Right now when there's an environment in the workspace we show two options: either to select the existing one, or to delete and recreate it. When one selects "use existing", we show a confirmation prompt saying that's selected.

   

   We could be more explicit in the logs though, so we can leave #19935 open :)

   What we show in the logs:

   2023-12-20 17:34:10.359 [info] Selected workspace /home/x for creating virtual environment.
   2023-12-20 17:34:11.202 [info] Selected interpreter /home/x/.venv/bin/python for creating virtual environment.
