This cli is for assembling various git repo templates into usable git repos.

• pat will never overwrite files or directories unless you tell it to.
• pat will place a .pat file in the target directory to indicate it has been processed by pat.
• pat will skip processing directories that have a .pat file in it unless you specify an override.
• pat allows you to process individual files or directories by specifying them as an option.
• pat allows for multiple source and destination repositories all having unique references.
• pat supports github and bitbucket.
• pat requires git, hub (for github), and gomplate to be installed and available in the system path.
• pat supports specification processing a single file or a directory structure of files.

https://github.com/github/hub

Clone an existing repo you have in your github account. If you don't have one, just create one with a README.md file.

$ hub clone {username}/{repo_name}

hub will ask for your github username, then your github password. Hub will not store this password. It uses these credentials to establish a personal access token.

Delete the files you pulled down

$ rm -fr {repo_name}

1. Navigate to https://github.com and login
2. Click on your profile icon in the upper left corner to get dropdown list, choose "Settings"
3. Click "Developer settings" on left hand list
4. Click "Personal access tokens"
5. Click on "hub for {username}@{machinename}" link
6. Scroll down on permissions list, and check "delete_repo" permissions
7. Scroll to bottom and click "Update token"

Please refer to the following article that explains this credential mechanism https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucketserver/permanently-authenticating-with-git-repositories-776639846.html
