several templates in one repo

[m-birke]

Actual Situation

I have a git repo with several templates collected, each one has its own directory

Desired Situation

It would be cool if it would be possible to specify a directory within a git repo where the template is located.

Proposed solution

additional param for copier copy like --directory ?

Like cookiecutter is doin it

This is answered in the docs: https://copier.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuring/#subdirectory

Can I have multiple templates in a single repo using this option?

The Copier recommendation is: 1 template = 1 Git repository.
