jhipster doesn't generate liquibase changelog for generated entities

Question

I did the following:

• Created new jhipster application following the development guide
• Launched the Application class with hot-reload VM options as per here from IntelliJ; command line C:\dev\jdk1.8.0\bin\java -javaagent:spring_loaded/springloaded-jhipster.jar -noverify -Dspringloaded=plugins=io.github.jhipster.loaded.instrument.JHipsterLoadtimeInstrumentationPlugin -Didea.launcher.port=7538 "-Didea.launcher.bin.path=C:\dev\IntelliJ IDEA\bin" -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -classpath "*snip very long classpath" com.intellij.rt.execution.application.AppMain com.mysoftware.Application
• Created new entity using yo jhipster:entity project as per here
• Expected results - everything works
• Obtained results - going to http://localhost:8080/#/project gets org.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLException: Table "T_PROJECT" not found
• /src/main/resources/config/liquibase/changelog has only db-changelog-001.xml
• Restart didn't help

So it seems like the step

 If you have used hot reload in the previous step, JHipster has automatically created a new file named src/main/resources/config/liquibase/changelog/db-changelog--002.xml.

from here hasn't really taken place.

What am I doing wrong?

What's the easiest way to manually invoke the generation of the db-changelog-002.xml; as I'm not keen in writing it manually, the entity class already has all the information.

This appears to be jhipster bug:
