Description

When using the "--template" flag with the create command, the widget version number in the template config.xml is not copied to the config.xml file within the output directory. Instead, the version number defaults to "1.0.0". That causes the resulting iOS IPA file to have its version number set to "1.0.0".

This occurs in cordova versions greater than 6.2.0 (ex: 6.3.1, 6.4.0).

The current workaround for builds that use template config.xml files is to downgrade cordova to 6.2.0.
