default PG settings fails if apps/myApps does not exist

[artificiel]

the .gitignore rules take out the apps/myApps dir, but PG defaults to it. this leads to an error:

in command line, the reason is revealed:

of-dev % /Applications/projectGenerator\ mac\ 2023.app/Contents/Resources/app/app/projectGenerator  -o"/Users/brtn/source_control/of-dev/openFrameworks" -a" " -p"osx,osx"  -t"" "/Users/brtn/source_control/of-dev/openFrameworks/apps/myApps/gcc6singleton"
[notice ] PG v.20\
[notice ] Folder doesn't exist "/Users/brtn/source_control/of-dev/openFrameworks/apps/myApps"

should the PG create the missing dir?
or should the dir be included in gitignore?

(and could the error appear in the GUI PG mini-log? the screenshot above is cut, but the line displayed is only the command, not the result)

PG version is fresh download from nightlies (seems aug 30)

Maybe safer to just make a myApps folder in our Git repo?

hmm I tried but I cannot figure out the combo between $OF_ROOT/.gitignore and $OF_ROOT/apps/.gitignore to keep an empty $OF_ROOT/apps/myApps alive (with or without a .gitkeep)
