What is the url parameter for in `pulumi new` that replaces the template parameter?

<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/cli/pulumi_new/>

```pulumi new [template|url] [flags]```
it doesn't seem to be documented at all.

Is there a way to add custom templates by url?

Yes! You just need to specify a git url, for example
`pulumi new <https://github.com/pulumi/templates/tree/master/azure-typescript>`
