have that string replaced with the value of the ``var`` variable provided
to the scaffold.

- Files that start with a dot (e.g., ``.env``) are ignored and will not be
copied over to the destination directory. If you want to include a file with
a leading dot then you must replace the dot with ``+dot+`` (e.g.,
``+dot+env``).

Otherwise, files and directories which live in the template directory will be
copied directly without modification to the ``pcreate`` output location.
