[Enhancement or Issue ??] Error when using command "powerquery.extractDataflowDocument" on file already extracted

Not sure where that one sits. Enhancement or Issue? I'll let you decide.

We'd like to automate this command in a git pre-commit hook but the issue is that it throws an error when the JSON file has already been extracted as a .pq in the same folder.

It would be nice to be able to change settings to force the command to overwrite existing files.

I would probably be able to implement some sort of error handling in our pre-commit hook but I think the command should at least ask to overwrite or cancel the command.
Another option would be to extend the setting "Powerquery > Editor: Transform Target" to this command as well but that may screw up the JSON format and make it impossible for other JSON pre-commit hooks to process the file correctly.
A setting to enable or disable automatic overwrite of .pq files when using this command could also be a viable option.

Thanks!

Start by locating the powerquery.extractDataflowDocument command and the existing Powerquery > Editor: Transform Target setting. Review how extraction handles an existing .pq file, then determine and document the supported overwrite, prompt, or cancel behavior. Done means repeated extraction no longer fails silently and the chosen behavior is covered by tests.
