Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search/issues/467

This is less of a request to the application itself, but more about the way the repo is structured. I'm using whoogle from git, and pull every once in a while. The problem is, every time I pull, it wipes out whoogle.env. A way to avoid this is to what other projects do and move the example configuration file to a different name than the main configuration file. Alternatively, you can give people the option to set their own environment variable (would be a minor change in app/__init__.py).

Thanks, makes sense. Fixed on main now (but named whoogle.template.env instead).
