# SUMMARY
# -------
# This script migrates your existing .env file to match a new .env.template structure.
# Here's what it does:
#
# 1. Creates a timestamped backup of your current .env file.
# 2. Reads your existing .env file and the new .env.template.
# 3. Creates a new .env file based on the .env.template structure.
# 4. Preserves values from your old .env for keys that exist in the new template.
# 5. Adds new keys from the template (with empty values) if they didn't exist in your old .env.
# 6. Ignores keys from your old .env that don't exist in the new template.
#
# Note: This script will overwrite your current .env file, but a backup is always created first.
# You will be asked for confirmation before any changes are made.
