Problem statement

Swagger flatten not working as expected

Swagger specification

  /applications:
    get:
      $ref: 'absolute_path#/paths/~1applications/get'
    post:
      $ref: 'absolute_path#/paths/~1applications/post'

generates:

/applications:
    get: {}
    post: {}

but if I move it up to the root level, works fine. I cannot do this though because I want to reference specific operations. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

this works fine with swagger-cli

Steps to reproduce

swagger flatten ... --format=yaml --with-flatten=full

Environment

swagger version: v.30.3
go version: 1.18.0
