## Historique du projet et usages

cruft is a Python command-line tool for creating projects from Cookiecutter templates and keeping the generated boilerplate synchronized with later template changes. It addresses a common packaging problem: generated project skeletons drift after the first copy.

### Historique du projet

The project was created to balance the convenience of project generators with the maintenance burden they create. Its documentation explains that cruft uses Cookiecutter as the template expansion engine, then records template metadata in `.cruft.json` so a project can later be checked, diffed, linked, or updated.

The Git tag history starts at 2.0.0 in 2020 and reaches 2.16.0 in 2024. The repository and documentation remain centered on Python packaging workflows, with badges for PyPI, conda-forge, tests, and downloads.

### Historique d'adoption

cruft's adoption is strongest among teams that maintain many repositories from the same Cookiecutter template. Its documentation includes a GitHub Actions workflow that checks for template updates and opens pull requests, indicating the tool's role in repository-fleet maintenance rather than one-off project creation.

### Modes d'utilisation

Common commands include `cruft create` for generating a project, `cruft update` for pulling template changes, `cruft check` for CI drift detection, `cruft link` for attaching an existing Cookiecutter-generated project to its template, and `cruft diff` for inspecting changes.

cruft stores template URL, commit, answers, and skip settings in `.cruft.json`; it can also read skip configuration from `tool.cruft` in `pyproject.toml`.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

cruft matters to package maintainers because it treats boilerplate as an updatable dependency. That makes template updates closer to dependency upgrades: visible in diffs, enforceable in CI, and distributable through Python package managers and Homebrew.

### Chronologie

- 2020: 2.0.0 public tag
- 2023: 2.15.0 release
- 2024: 2.16.0 release

### Related projects

- cruft is built around Cookiecutter compatibility and commonly appears with Python packaging, PyPI, conda-forge, Poetry, pipenv, and GitHub Actions workflows.
