Copier update

[mvsandoica]

Describe the problem

Hello,
I have created a copier template where the answer file has a custom name (.copier-answers.python-project.yml). When I call the template to update it tells me that it has been done correctly but I can't see the changes in the project. This was working in February, but now it has stopped updating, without showing any error.
It has also been tried with the default name (.copier-answers.yml) and the same thing happens.
We don't know what this is due to, as a month ago everything was working correctly.
Thank you very much for your help.

Hello @mvsandoica, thanks for the report 🙂

At first glance, it looks like you do not provide enough information for us to confirm the issue, let alone fix it. Could you try to provide a minimal reproduction example? With the default name for the answers file, since you mention the issue happens with it too.

We would like to know if you know of any internal bug that could have happened in the copier repository so that the updates are not performed in the project when a ‘copier update’ is performed. Since our template was working correctly a month ago and without making any changes, it has stopped working (the values of the different arguments are not updated) but no error is generated to indicate the failure.

No such bug to my knowledge.
