- Provide a dev shell.
- Provide a nix package.
- Provide a nix flake.
- Development environment based on direnv.
- Docs.
- Configure Gitpod to use direnv and nix.
- Configure Cachix out of the box, and document how to use it.
- Add direnv and nix to CI.
- Satisfy some linters that came from Precommix, even when Precommix was later discarded.
- Mark some tests as impure.
- Run only pure tests when building Copier with Nix.
- Add poetry loader to direnv.
- Update contribution guide.
When git 2.27 or newer is installed, we can add `--filter=blob:none` to avoid getting useless information from the git server. This makes clone much faster if your template has a big history.
Close https://github.com/copier-org/copier/issues/450 (it does not exactly fix it, but maybe makes it irrelevant).
Mkdocs uses `python-markdown`, and [they say](https://python-markdown.github.io/#differences):
> The syntax rules clearly state that when a list item consists of multiple paragraphs, “each subsequent paragraph in a list item must be indented by either 4 spaces or one tab” (emphasis added). However, many implementations do not enforce this rule and allow less than 4 spaces of indentation. The implementers of Python-Markdown consider it a bug to not enforce this rule.
As we were using 2 spaces for markdown files (which looks better in source code), some indented lists were not displaying properly in the docs page.
Thus I change the setting to 4 spaces. Prettier will now enforce them, and mkdocs will display things properly.
- Prepare for a new release.
- Add configuring page, with more explicit docs and examples for each option.
- Remove configuration stuff from creation page.
- Comparisons are ugly, so remove them from the index page.
- Ignore errors when executing `shutil.rmtree()`, because it seems like it's common to fail when deleting git repos on Windows, and since these are temp files, we don't really care that much there's garbage left. Any good OS should clean the temp folders automatically.
- Always find Jinja templates in `PosixPath` mode.
- Ignore `OSError` when trying to enter a possibly git root directory. This is yielded by Windows when the path is a URL and we don't really care about it.
- Fix some tests with non-windows hardcoded stuff.
- Fix a test that was using a Bash script. Modified to be Python, which should work fine cross-system.
- Remove external python dependencies (yaml, plumbum) from test task/migration files. These are available on Linux because it gets the python env from the venv, but on Windows, it uses the main python interpreter and breaks. After all, that's not very important here.
- Do not modify EOL in CI.
- Use python executable in tests instead of python3.
- Update pre-commit versions to include https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks/pull/509.
- Disable autorebasing.
- Disable pre-commit on CI on Windows.
- Require python 3.8 on Windows, where `tempfile` supports autoremoving directories with read-only files.
When migrating a template, it can happen that the answers spec is modified.
When that happens, the migration script should modify the answers file. Thus, the update process should reload answers after running pre-migrations.
That's what it is doing now with this patch.

When data came from `--data` flag, it was always a string.
If some data was expected to be of another type, it could make the template fail.
The type casting system must be applied also to user answers, so here's the patch, docs and tests.
