MergeWith should create the file, or fail if its missing

See original GitHub issue

Currently testing out the MergeWith option. It seems that it neither fails the test, logs a warning or creates the target file - if it’s missing. This seems like a bug to me. It simply silently ignores writing any output.

Workarounds:

Place an empty JSON Object (a simple {} will do) in the target file
Run first test without Merge, then the remaining ones with Merge

The initial issue was based on my misunderstanding of how MergeWith was meant to work. I expected MergeWith to supersede the output, and write to the MergeWith path, while keeping what was in it to begin with.

FYI I’m not sure I understood you doubt about guide, it read a file if exists and merge results. https://github.com/tonerdo/coverlet/blob/226455ece9760c72d3d09ca6c377efb8cb61d686/src/coverlet.core/Coverage.cs#L198
