Assertions spam the Console when minimizing the Editor Window
On 2020.1, if you start a new project you will get spammed with a lot of errors and assertions.
Every time the user would minimize the Editor window or click in and out of the Editor Window, the erros get printed again and again in the console
To reproduce:
- Start a new project using 2020.1.0a1
- notice the assertions:
Assertion failed on expression: 'txn.Exists(guid)'
Assertion failed on expression: 'false'
Replicates in Widows, MacOS and Linux
Reproducible in 2020.1.0a1, 2019.3.0b1
Cannot reproduce in 2019.2.0a12

It happened to me in Unity 2019.3.0f1.
The error messages are:
"Assertion failed on expression: 'txn.Exists(guid)'"
and
"Assertion failed on expression: 'initialScriptRefresh && GetAssetTypeV2(guid) == AssetDatabase::kSerializedAsset'"

I can confirm KINDOF3D's workaround above. I quit Unity 2019.3.0b1, started Visual Studio and opened a few project files, and then restarted Unity. The assertion failure errors seem to have gone away.

Got the issue in 2019.3.0b1. Started a new project with no errors. Created a C# script and got the errors. Cleared teh errors, deleted the script, and they reappeared on deletion.

Hey, the problem is gone for me if I open VS Code with the project files open BEFORE I open Unity.

When is this going to be fixed? Beta (2019.3.0b2) is currently not usable at all due to this bug.
