Hello Devs, Got a question on using git keyword expansion on a .j2 template file. Keyword expansion does not seem to work with .j2 file. Please see below a snippet of my attempt to archive test.cfg.j2 containing git keyword expansions in the header. It works if I changes the .j2 file extension to something else, say .yaml. I have not been able to find any information about issue. Can you please review and advise? Thank you.
