Facing the following issue with the latest version of maven-archetype-plugin/3.3.0

Error merging velocity templates: Encountered "<EOF>" at <path_to_file.sh>

[exec] [ERROR] Was expecting one of:
     [exec] [ERROR]     "\u001c" ...

     [exec] [ERROR] -> [Help 1]

 

This happens while parsing a shell script file that ends with "cd../.." without Line Feed. This is working fine till maven-archetype-plugin/3.2.1 but starts failing from last week after the new version of maven-archetype-plugin/3.3.0 released on 26th Sep, 2024. Help us resolve this as soon. Thanks.
