In some cases the current buffer is replaced with an eslint error

[RobinClowers]

It's a very strange edge case, I'm not really sure what causes it, but I ran into it when deleting an svg comment in a react component. This file will demonstrate the issue if you open it and delete the comment. It seems to have something to do with the xml namespace.

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        {theme => {

          return (
            <svg xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
              <!-- test -->
            </svg>
          )
        }
      }
      </div>
    )
  }
}

I can't reproduce this w/ eslint_d 5.0.0.

It does crash eslint, which it probably shouldn't do, but that does not result in the buffer getting replaced in emacs. Note there were errors that caused this in older versions of eslint_d, but they've been fixed. If you're up to date with both eslint_d and eslintd-fix, this shouldn't happen. Please try updating and let me know if it still happens.

FWIW eslint_d 4.2.4 was the first version that fixes the behavior you're describing.

Yeah, I was on 4.2.1, upgrading fixed it. Thanks!
