A common issue for Electron Forge's init command is that our internal template search logic prioritizes globally installed templates over locally installed ones.
In practice, this means that if you installed
npm install -g create-electron-app
at some point (we used to recommend that in our docs a long time ago), you'll run into a bug whereinit
fails because it tries to fetch the global module installed with an incompatible Forge version.ref #3874
This PR addresses the issue by suffixing
(local module)
or(global module)
to the end of the file and resolving the actual template module name.
