[toolchain 2.0] How to remote debug?

[DrSegatron]

How do you remote debug with the 2.0 toolchain? What has changed in gdb since old version?

I used
msys32\opt\xtensa-esp32-elf\bin\xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.exe
before, but the new
.espressif\tools\xtensa-esp32-elf\esp32-2019r1-8.2.0\xtensa-esp32-elf\bin\xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.exe
does not seem to be doing anything, it just gives me a gdb-exit (VS CODE):

1-gdb-set target-async on
2-environment-directory "C:\\projekt\\jobb\\LRR1\\esp32\\project"
3-file-exec-and-symbols "C:\\projekt\\jobb\\LRR1\\esp32\\project\\build\\project.elf"
-gdb-exit
