Suggestion: Use only one file from a template.

I really like boilr, thx for this great solution. I love the simplicity of boilr.

One suggestion:

  • It would be nice to be able to use just one file of a template repo

My use case:

  • I'd love to use boilr to insert misc code/readme templates to several projects, but I actually do not want to create a separate boilr repo for each of the templates
  • Instead (beside using boilr for scaffolding project), I'd like to create a bigger project with a lot of different single templates (README files, code files, config files, etc.)

Sample how this could work:

  • boilr template use <tag>[/<?filepath-within-template>] <target>

What do you think? Does this fit in your plans ... I am unfortunately still a learner in the GoLang space, but with some help I could think of trying to contribute to this project with a PR ...
