"✘ Error: error: No such remote 'origin'"

[ilyvion]

Was going to start yet another project of a similar kind today, and was getting tired of copying files around manually and editing them, so I searched for a tool to do it for me, and discovered tmplr. Figured I'd give it a go. Created a local directory that I was going to use as my test-template, and added a few things to its .tmplr.yml file, before I thought it'd be a good idea to see if it even works before I put much more time into it.

Here's the result of running my npx tmplr command:

❯ npx tmplr local:C:\Users\alexs\Documents\Projects\RimworldMod\
✘ Error: error: No such remote 'origin'



👉 .tmplr.yml:3:7
1  |# .tmplr.yml

2  |steps:

3  |    - read: project_name

4  |      from: git.remote_name

5  |      fallback:

6  |          from: filesystem.rootdir

7  |

8  |    - read: clone_url

(The lines 3-6 are highlighted in red; I have no clue why each line is separated by a blank line.)

This error is not at all actionable. What am I meant to do with that information? Why isn't it using the fallback value from filesystem.rootdir if there's an issue with grabbing the git.remote_name value? Isn't that what fallbacks are for?
