Comment (by jidanni):

 OK I see somebody has now noted this in
 https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/blob/master/lib/init/variables.html

 I now made https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/232 to mention it also in
 g.gisenv.

 However in both files, we are now mentioning "after the
 current GRASS session is closed", but users also wonder "what about the
 current session?"

 ... after the current GRASS session is closed. Note that within a GRASS
 session, a temporary copy of this rc file is used.

 --exec.

 Works for me: after closing the GRASS session, or after `grass --exec` the
 $HOME/.grass7/rc file is updated accordingly.
