But it looks like tmplr was trying to replace the local directory with the file. I'd expect that specifying a path, even just ., would copy the file to that location using its existing name.
I guess there's some ambiguity as to whether ./foo should mean renaming the file to foo or not. I feel like there's some de facto standard in configs like for webpack, but I can't think of it at the moment.
In any case, it would be nice to catch the error and provide a better message than illegal operation on a directory, since I didn't think I was doing anything to a directory.
