Regression in 0.17 - Atlantis fails to apply if there are no changes

[Eddman]

We have a problem on a PR that has 0 planed changes. atlantis apply ends up with an error:

atlantis plan

Ran Plan for 0 projects:

atlantis apply

stat /home/atlantis/.atlantis/repos/my_org/my_repo/87: no such file or directory

Previously (0.16.1) it worked as expected and just reported:

Ran Apply for 0 projects:

This is similar to #1575, but I think this is a bit different case. In our PR there are changes, but not to files listed in atlantis.yaml in project.

• In 0.16.1 Atlantis did clone the repo and created the directory structure for such PRs. Atlantis apply then returned just message: Ran Apply for 0 projects:
• In 0.17.2 however it just ends up with empty data-dir/repos/ folder and fails on apply later.

Hmm that's odd we're running 0.17.2 and haven't come across this.

This problem still persist in 0.19.2, but the workaround from #1714 (comment) helped in this case as well....

is this still an issue with v0.19.8? I think this was addressed
