Description
On the lines we can find it:
File: Data/Packages/SQLTools/SQLTools.py
665: userSettingFile = os.path.join(sublimeUserFolder, SQLTOOLS_SETTINGS_FILE)
666: if not os.path.isfile(userSettingFile):
667: # create empty settings file in 'User' folder
668: sublime.save_settings(SQLTOOLS_SETTINGS_FILE)
Above has the comment:
# this ensures we have empty settings file in 'User' directory during first start
# otherwise sublime will copy entire contents of 'SQLTools.sublime-settings'
# which is not desirable and prevents future changes to queries and other
# sensible defaults defined in settings file, as those would be overriden by content
# from older versions of SQLTools in 'User\SQLTools.sublime-settings'
However I never saw Sublime Text doing such thing on version 3. Perhaps this is a fix Sublime Text version 2?
