How to I remove the Powershell start text?

Powershell 6 has a Unix-style /etc/issue that mentions a link to the docs.

PowerShell v6.0.0
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

https://aka.ms/pscore6-docs
Type 'help' to get help.

This is fine, but:

  • I know where the docs are
  • I know I launched Powershell 6

How can I remove some, or all of the message? IIRC Powershell 5 still had the copyright message so maybe I can't remove that, but getting rid of the last 3 lines would help?

From @sandu's answer, it could be improved as below.

"terminal.integrated.profiles.windows": {
   "PowerShell": {
       "source": "PowerShell",
       "args": ["-noLogo"]
   }
},
"terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.windows": "PowerShell",
