Relative path edit required when moving the template to an existing repo

[Neeratyoy]

I had an existing repo which I wanted to make into a package template.

I followed these steps:

• Cloned this repo and renamed it to my package git folder name
• Executed generate.py as a package
• Renamed this repo and cloned the original repo I wanted to update
• Copied all new files from the template to the original repo
• Created a new environment to test pip install . or python setup.py install

Got an error at this last step to fix which:

• Needed to change the relative paths to README and requirements as they were going up a directory somehow using ../ to look for these files

Also, it might be good to have some instructions/guide on how to incorporate a template into an existing repo/package.

Is there a contributing guideline?
I could try to work on the instructions to incorporate the template?

That would be super nice!

I do the following to integrate it:

• Create new branch in existing project
• Remove files and copy the automl template files
• Execute generate.py
• Merge changes to desired branch
