If you have a Python file in your project template and you have a string
of code such as {{{ {% static %} }}}, startproject will throw an exception
as it tries to render the tag.
As a minimum viable test case, I put together the following repository:
https://github.com/danielsamuels/django-project-template-bug
It consists of a single {{{ __init__.py }}} with a comment inside, the
contents of the comment being {{{ {% static %} }}}. Using this as a
project template will cause the following exception to be thrown:
{{{ django-admin startproject output --template
https://github.com/danielsamuels/django-project-template-
bug/archive/master.zip }}}
{{{

}}}
In theory, this project template _should_ work, given that the templatetag
is just a comment within the project.

Comment (by timgraham):
The documentation [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/django-admin
/#render-warning warns about this]. I'm not sure it can/should be fixed as
it seems to me we cannot treat some part of the file as a template but not
others.
