Summary

I am experiencing an issue with formatting. I expect the formatted code to only contain text from the current branch, but it intermittently contains code from the previous branch I was working on.

Steps to Reproduce

Work on a relatively large file (couple of hundred lines in my experience). Switch to a different branch, with somewhat different code Format the code (in my case automatically on save) Find code from the first branch splatted in a random location on the new branch

Once this happens, the only way to fix it that I've found is to restart VSCode.

I suspect that the Language Server isn't being reset when we switch branches.

Thanks @andrewducker sorry to hear you are hitting this issue...we will need to do more investigation.

I've been having the same issue for a while, but haven't found a consistent repro.

@andrewducker Do you work in a devcontainer? I do, so just wondering if it can be ruled out as a reason.

[andrewducker]

I'm not in a devcontainer.
