Formatting issues with comment syntax and spaces in chezmoi templates

[jbwfu]

I have been experimenting with the comment syntax in chezmoi templates and encountered some unexpected behavior.

chezmoi execute-template '{{/* test */}}' # success
chezmoi execute-template '{{- /* test */ -}}' # success
chezmoi execute-template '{{-  /* test */ -}}' # error
# chezmoi: template: arg1:1: unexpected "/" in command
chezmoi execute-template '{{- /* test */  -}}' # error
# chezmoi: template: arg1:1: comment ends before closing delimiter
chezmoi execute-template '{{ /* test */ -}}' # error
# chezmoi: template: arg1:1: unexpected "/" in command

My questions are:

1. Does the comment syntax {{/* comment */}} only support one space when used with the - syntax?
2. Is this behavior expected or are there limitations on how comments can be formatted in chezmoi templates?

This is more of a go text/template question than a chezmoi question, but comments may only be either {{/* | */}} or {{- /* | */ -}}. You can have the whitespace removal on either end without requiring a match on both sides. So the following four combinations are permitted:

{{/* */}}
{{- /* */}}
{{/* */ -}}
{{- /* */ -}}
