Ask your Question

when I use template in local folder, it works, but I want to use template in my github like npm install git files as npm install \, that is more convenient then local folder and npm package, and switch branch is useful when manage some templates , but it's not works, throw error...

react-native init templateTest --version 0.59.10 --template git://github.com/xxx/react-native-template.git

You're using legacy init, which we don't maintain anymore. Please use the new one:

npx react-native init templateTest --template git://github.com/xxx/react-native-template.git

Notice npx and using either version or template, not both. Also, template needs to conform to a new, simpler format: https://github.com/react-native-community/cli/blob/master/docs/init.md#creating-custom-template

In case npx react-native gives the same results, you should be able to fix it by running npx [email protected] or npx @react-native-community/cli instead.
