As I understand that link, it's not a bug at all. If you want to create
a procedure, you use CREATE PROCEDURE. If you want to change an existing
procedure, you use ALTER PROCEDURE. Alternatively, you drop the existing
procedure first, but then you would have to reapply permissions. Visual
Studio helps you out by changing CREATE to ALTER for you.

Also, one thing to keep in mind is that you enter things into the database,
that is not a Save operation, although unfortunately some tools use that
terminology. As with all other programming code, you save your code to disk
and then put it under version control. Regard what's in the database as
binaries.
