Colon in cmds fails yaml parsing

[zbindenren]

Taskvars.yml:

CONTEXT: /

Taskfile.yml:

view:
  cmds:
    - echo 'context: {{.CONTEXT}}'

Produces:

$ task view
yaml: line 3: found unexpected end of stream

Taskfile.yml:

view:
  cmds:
    - echo 'context: test'

Produces:

$ task view
yaml: unmarshal errors:
  line 3: cannot unmarshal !!map into string

When a string constains a colon, YAML requires you to quote this string. The following works:

view:
  cmds:
    - "echo 'context: {{.CONTEXT}}'"
  vars:
    CONTEXT: /
