Hello Helge,
Yes, there has been a lot of discussion around templates in config repos. I’ll link to some more conversations below.
Unfortunately, there is no plan to incorporate GoCD’s templates into config repos. Tomasz, the author of configuration repositories, has mentioned a few times that he thinks that the GoCD templates are not flexible enough and he believes that it’s better to have a separate templating mechanism.
Some relevant conversations are here:
The one that is closest to templates and a work in progress that is coming along well is: https://github.com/gocd/gocd/issues/6123 – This is about branch support, but it considers templating as a way to get to it.
Another approach for templating might be to look into the Groovy DSL plugin.
Cheers,
Aravind
