Description

Description of feature

Since some users want to maintain their own independent/custom modules-type repositories, i think it would be nice to have a template available for a modules repo and also have commands in nf-core tooling to create such a repository from scratch, and also sync the templates, similar to how we create and sync pipeline repos. would this be possible?

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by examining the existing pipeline repository template and the nf-core tooling commands that create and sync pipeline repositories. Define the scope for an equivalent modules template and commands, including how synchronization should work, before implementation.
