Reproduction steps

1. Create a new folder
2. Add any documented lua file, I used this:

---@param x number
function foo(x) end

3. Run lua-language-server --doc <path-to-folder>

Additional Notes

I tried this on both Windows and WSL with the same result.

Log File

No response

Beginne bei script/cli/doc/export.lua mit dem serializeAndExport-Fehler in Zeile 304 und verfolge dann, wie script/cli/doc/init.lua es für --doc aufruft. Führe den Befehl gegen einen Ordner aus, der die dokumentierte Lua-Datei enthält. Fertig ist es, wenn der Befehl ohne den nil-Fehler bei outputDir abgeschlossen wird und die erwartete Dokumentation erzeugt.
