I have a Jhiptser project and I created the entities using jdl file. now I want to add one more table. I created the following jdl file.
enum DistributionType {
Prize(Prize),
Donation (Donation)
}
entity PrizeDistribution {
name String required
createdDate LocalDate required
details String required
image String
type DistributionType required
activeFrom LocalDate required
activeTo LocalDate
}
service PrizeDistribution with serviceClass
dto PrizeDistribution with mapstruct
paginate PrizeDistribution with pagination
but when I am trying to import this, all other entity files are chowing as changed and I need to manually enter "n" to prevent it from changing. is there any simpler way to import one and only entity that I need?
the following is the log i am getting in the cmd after running jhipster import-jdl entity.jdl

NOTE
I deleted all the contents from the .jhipster folder and then ran the command. at that time, only the required entity changes were created. Is it the correct approach? or is there any simpler approach?
