The bug can also happen with HFS. To avoid it happening (if you use Save Archive) - always save the archive into a new empty folder. You don’t have to create this folder in the Finder - you can also create it in the Save Archive file dialog. Here are some (simpler) steps for doing that:
- Create a new folder in the dialog that says “Save Archive Folder in:” (and check that the popup menu at the top of the dialog shows the name of the new folder you created). In older systems there is an obvious “New Folder” button, but in newer systems (e.g. Mojave) there is a small icon near the top of the dialog
- Click on Save Archive
- Type anything you like in the next (“New Folder”) dialog (e.g. “asdf”)
- The “asdf” folder will be empty (you can throw it away). Everything else in the archive folder is the actual archive.
