Describe the bug

Discussed here https://github.com/asyncapi/html-template/issues/61 - I remove unused files by hook and it coping files infinitely.

ag test/spec/asyncapi.yml ./ -o test/output --force-write --watch-template -p singleFile=true
than change some files.

Expected behavior

https://github.com/asyncapi/generator/pull/337 should have fixed this issue 🤔 @GordeevArt what generator version are you using?
@derberg any thoughts on the issue? (Edit: just read the discussion nwm 😄)

[GordeevArt]

@jonaslagoni I use latest @asyncapi/[email protected] version

[derberg]

@jonaslagoni I forgot I fixed it some time ago 😆 I just checked quickly on local and for me my fix still works 😄

@GordeevArt are you a windows user? or?

[GordeevArt]

@derberg Fedora Linux 5.7.15-100.fc31.x86_64

Try to change something in output folder (index.html).

it matters just for developing with parameter singleFile=true.

[derberg]

@GordeevArt I tried to do changes manually in output, also added a hook that you added without any parameters so it always runs, and no effect

I recorded this to show how I do it

[GordeevArt]

@derberg ok, thanks for research. I do the same but have the bug. It is no critical.

[derberg]

@GordeevArt this is what we are using under the hood to watch for changes. Would be great if you could try out their CLI with --ignore flag, to see if this issue is caused by the chokidar library or we just do something wrong in the Generator

[GordeevArt]

@derberg this still don't work for me

[derberg]

@GordeevArt you mean you tried https://github.com/kimmobrunfeldt/chokidar-cli indepedently from the generator and it was also detecting changes in ignored paths?
