Put simply, the path command will return the value of the ARCHETYPE_TEMPLATE_DIR
environment variable as the gem sees it.
This is only useful for debugging if the gem is not returning the templates you expect it to.
For example, if ARCHETYPE_TEMPLATE_DIR
was set to /path/to/templates
in your .bashrc
or zshrc
file then:
arcehtype path
Would print:
/path/to/templates
