.chezmoi.$FORMAT.tmpl

If a file called .chezmoi.$FORMAT.tmpl exists then chezmoi init will use it to create an initial config file. $FORMAT must be one of the supported config file formats, e.g. json, jsonc, toml, or yaml.

Example

~/.local/share/chezmoi/.chezmoi.yaml.tmpl
{{ $email := promptString "email" -}}

data:
    email: {{ $email | quote }}
