I think it should copy platform and plugins folders, if those are a part of the 
template. I think the guidance should be that most templates should not include 
a platform or a plugin folder, but if they do - for reasons like custom 
plugins, etc, then we should let that happen. The only enhancement from 
--copy-from would be that we also support npm and git URLs.

The template doesn't any special structure, the current hello app in npm is 
already a template

Will add comment in PR about having fixtures in tests for different uses cases 
with different type of templates

The code copies everything except plugins and platforms directories, maybe it 
needs some comments to make it more clear

It should copy dot files like .gitignore, .editorconfig, .bowerrc Very 
important at least for me .gitignore, it helps when folks ask if they should 
ignore platforms and plugins from source control and the answer is always YES. 
If they are asking then it means they need the advise.
