Description of problem:

Users have some kind of annoying issue on Dev Spaces. When using empty workspace with persistent user directory. On subsequent restarts of workspace, the kubeconfig file (/home/user/.kube/config), gets malformed to the point oc cli is unable to read config:

$ oc get pods
error: error loading config file "/home/user/.kube/config": yaml: mapping values are not allowed in this context

When we opened file, It's structure is lacking line breaks, making config a one liner. Deleting file and logging to the cluster using "Copy logging command" works, but file gets corrupted on next restart.
