Extension creates random file in project folder!

[ehsanghorbani190]

What happened?

Hi! Today I launched my zed to code some java and suddenly the extension was auto-updated to v6.8.2 (note that the latest release in GitHub is v6.8.0!). I just was working when I found out something, there was a new file with a random string name, and inside it was a random 5 or 6-digit number, inside the " folder (yes, actually named double-quote character folder). And when I deleted it, the extension stopped working.
On every restart, the file was created, and I can confirm that the value was changed, but I don't know about the name because it was too long.
Because of late attacks on packages, I thought it would be helpful mentioning this behavior. I'm currently trying to downgrade to v6.7.0 to check if the problem is from the latest version.

UPDATE: I can confirm that the v6.7.0 doesn't create the folder and thus, doesn't have the bug.

What did you expect to happen?

The folder and file should not be created.

Environment

Zed: v0.217.1
Platform: Arch Linux

Thank you, this is likely coming from #151 as well and should be fixed by #156

@ehsanghorbani190 can you verify this has been fixed in 6.8.3?

@ehsanghorbani190, thank you for promptly reporting the quotation issue and the discrepancy between the release and the version of the extension being installed by Zed.

The discrepancy arises from the automation that automatically updates the extension’s version. I had assumed that it would also create a release, but that decision is still ours.

I sincerely apologize if the discrepancy led you to believe that something was amiss. I have now updated the releases to ensure that the information displayed on Zed aligns with the information provided here.

Hi! Thanks to you for answering quickly!
@playdohface I can confirm that this issue is fixed in the v6.8.3. Thanks!
@tartarughina No problem! It just looked strange to me, alongside with the bug of creating a random file, it was a little bit scary XD. Thanks for explanation.

Keep it up team!
