Debug fails in python jupyter notebook where cells have `execution_count: null`

まず、execution_count が null であるセルを含むノートブックで失敗を再現し、次に、レポートに示されているとおりに debugpy/server/cli.py と pydevd_runpy.py を通して実行を追跡します。完了の条件は、そのようなノートブックを、JSON の null 値が原因の NameError を発生させずにデバッグ用に起動できることです。

I have notebooks which have cells having the json attribute "execution_count" set to null.
This is common with tools, such as nbdev-clean which attempt to reduce diff-noise when saving notebooks in source control.

Unfortunately, it seems to make it impossible to debug in such notebooks from within VS Code's Python extension.

Here is a trace:
