How It Works

  1. Validates the name. It becomes a directory under the current directory, so it must be a single path segment of letters, digits, -, and _.
  2. Runs git clone --depth 1 on the template repository (git must be installed).
  3. Removes the cloned .git directory, giving you a clean tree to init your own repo in.
The command fails if the target directory already exists. The CLI doesn’t keep a registry of projects; up, down, and restart operate on whatever directory you run them from.
