cookiecutter-2.1.1 breaks cruft

After recent upgrade I get

Downgrading to cookiecutter-1.7.3 fixes the problem.

What additional information do you need?

I am having this problem too. I think the apply_overwrites_to_context function within cookiecutter is assuming that the overwrite variable is never also a list. I think this will need to be fixed on the cookiecutter side so that in the case when the overwrite is also a list it just overwrites.

Hello cruft-team …

I really like your project. I was halfway in implementing something like cruft on my own when I found this. It’s really great work and saves me a lot of time. Thanks for that … 👍👍

In one of my cookiecutter templates I’m using '_extensions' and see a similar error as reported here.

cookiecutter.json: { “project_name”: “The name of the python library”, … “_extensions”: [“jinja2_time.TimeExtension”], }

error:

ValueError: ['jinja2_time.TimeExtension'] provided for choice variable _extensions, but the choices are ['jinja2_time.TimeExtension'].

Any update on #197? Tested the fix provided in #197 locally. It solves my issue.
