When using kiota client generate an empty output folder is generated

[maisarissi]

After generating clients and plugin in the following structure:

/clients-plugins
 └─.kiota
    └─apimanifest.json
    └─workspace.json 
    └─documents
       └─GraphAdminCSharp
         └─openapi.yaml
       └─GraphChatsJava
         └─openapi.yaml
       └─RepairsPlugin
         └─openapi.yaml
 └─GraphAdminCSharp
    └─ # Generated code files
 └─GraphChatsJava
    └─ # Generated code files
 └─RepairsPlugin
    └─ # Generated plugin files

When I run in .../clients-plugins folder the following command:

kiota client generate

All my clients are updated based on the workspace.json file, however, an empty output folder is created even when I don't have this folder as output directory for any of my clients.

Expected

We should generate all clients based on the workspace.json file and their output directory. If there is no client using output folder as the output directory, no empty output folder should be created.

I used Kiota CLI 1.19 and got the empty folder. Just saw that the issue will be part of the 1.19.1 patch. Thanks!
