There was a problem hiding this comment.
This is where the setVariable request is handled. I added the scope to the change_variable

In this issue:
#1857
The user is trying to assign the global 'c' to a new value while inside of a function. Since the variable is listed under 'globals', you'd think this would just work.
Internally we don't actually assign it to globals unless the user types
globals()['c']=value, but that doesn't really make sense from the variables panel.I found that the scope of the variable is passed in the
setVariablesrequest, so we can use that to determine if the variable was originally a global or not and assign it to the correct scope.I tested this with Pydevd's test automation and by using VS code.
