Escape quotes in manifest creation
See original GitHub issueBug Report
Current Behavior If you use single or double in for example the description of a new probot during scaffolding, it seems to “break” the manifest, because these are not escaped, and therefor not valid JSON upon installing.
How to reproduce
$ yarn create probot-app foo
…
etc.
Now try to install the app, and GitHub will tell you that it is not valid JSON (which is true).
Expected behavior/code I expect to be able to use single and double quotes unless “told” otherwise 😃
Environment
- Probot version(s): 7.2.0
- Node/npm/yarn version: Node 10.0/NPM 5.6/Yarn 1.9.4
- OS: macOS 10.14
Possible Solution Either escape or somehow else serialize user input or only allow certain types of characters.

Ahh, I honestly haven’t seen that come up and I’d prefer the manifest to work, so let’s move to escaping all the template variables!
Could you please create a new issue for it and we take it from there?
