2020.6.2 breaks if .venv directory already exists

[gsemet]

With 2020.5.28 I have the right behavior, similar to the previous versions of pipenv: if an empty .venv directory exists prior to the first execution of pipenv install or pipen --rm, it behaves like when the environment variable PIPENV_VENV_IN_PROJECT=1 is set.

With 2020.6.2, I have the following error:

Courtesy Notice: Pipenv found itself running within a virtual environment, so it will automatically use that environment, instead of creating its own for any project. You can set PIPENV_IGNORE_VIRTUALENVS=1 to force pipenv to ignore that environment and create its own instead. You can set PIPENV_VERBOSITY=-1 to suppress this warning.
Warning: There was an unexpected error while activating your virtualenv. Continuing anyway...

Ideally, a setting in the Pipfile would be great:

[[pipenv]]
venv_in_project=1
...

Can you fill the issue template with pipenv --support output? Are you on MacOS?

[gsemet]

Indeed, Mac 10.14.6. I update the bug report

Duplicated, see #4327 and #4316

um... it looks like you closed ALL of the related issues as duplicate. At least I can't find one that isn't closed as duplicate.
