Comment (by piscvau):
I do not shout I am just trying to raise a point which is the following :
if the current directory is <project-name> and you type in django-admin
startproject project-name . you create a project project-name in the
current directory project-name. This is the django docs recommended method
to create a project in the current directory.
The django docs also says : To call a management command from code, use
call_command.
and yet :
management.call_command (startproject, Path.cwd().stem, '.') raises an
exception.
The reason why the exception is raised is very straight forward.
But if you need to create a custom startproject command and create the
project in the current directory, applying the documentation leads you
immediately to this exception.
So if it is not a bug, it is at least a functional problem.
