generate file 'logback.log' automatically

[sean822]

Type: Bug

1. just open any git repo
2. a file named 'logback.log' will be created automatically

I do not change any config of vscode or extension, except upgrade vscode and some extensions.I firstlt thought it may be some java extensions did that, but it continue after i uninstall all java extensions

@yangjuexi-ones, there is no reference of such file in the VS Code codebase so this must be created either by an extension, or a git hook that is specific to your git repository that you have opened.

Please use the "Help: Troubleshoot Issue..." command from the command palette to try to narrow down the root cause of the issue. Thanks!

@yangjuexi-ones I had the same issue, it looks like for me its the extension Groovy Lint, Format and Fix thats doing this .... I have it disabled for now and the issue is resolved for me. I'm hoping the extension gets patched soon (dont wanna have to gitignore the logback.log file in all my repos)

Thanks . I have identified that the problem was caused by extension Groovy Lint, Format and Fix according the command you tell me. And , the process tell me the problem was caused by extension Groovy Lint, Format and Fix. After that, I tried to disable/ uninstall the extension, and no more logback.log created.
