Error while I try generate a project

[davidenq]

Hi!, I installed vue-init following steps that describes at vue-init respositories, but when I run vue init webpack example or vue init I get the next error:

module.js:457
    throw err;
    ^

Error: Cannot find module './src/init'

TEMPORARY SOLUTION

There is an issue with the gulp-sourcemaps module that is installed with vue-cli.
Please see the issue here: gulp-sourcemaps/gulp-sourcemaps#242

I fixed the issue finally after manually downloading the gulp-sourcemaps repository and placing its contents in the gulp-sourcemaps folder found in the node_modules of your vue-cli installation.

When installing vue-cli, the "src" folder for gulp-sourcemaps was not installed. By copying the repository which includes the "src" folder, I was able to get it running.

@brysem thanks for your temporary solution. Now, it worked for me.

If you want automatically replace folder then you could use the bellow command in the node_modules of your vue-cli installation:
I executed this command at Ubuntu:

sudo sh -c "wget https://github.com/floridoo/gulp-sourcemaps/archive/master.zip ; unzip master.zip ; rm -rf gulp-sourcemaps ; mv gulp-sourcemaps-master/ gulp-sourcemaps/ ; rm -rf master.zip"

Note: I used the master version because src has never been part of the repo for releases

@davidenq Updating vue-cli seems to fix the issue
If the error still persist, tell me so I can reopen the issue
