WARNING: importer writes files to the source directory

WARNING: importer writes files to the source directory

why is this the case?

seems like a dangerous procedure that could be avoided by using a separate working directory during the import as well as a different destination directory for the output of the import process

post import process there is a scripts folder and a vmxf file left in the source vm location as well

likewise there is an empty scripts folder on the output location that doesnt seem to get cleaned up after import is complete

what is the reason for the 2 deep folders on the output location? the extra subdirectory seems unneeded

I have experienced the same. It would be helpful if the new directory structure created would include something in the directory name to let you know that this was imported.
