Creating Umbrella Web App With `phx.new.web` Results in App That Cannot Be Compiled

Please share the details of the collisions you hit. Thanks!

[kyleboe]

I'm happy to open a PR for the proposed solution. Just want to see if there is a more apt name than depends-on or if there is some configuration I am missing.

[kyleboe]

I'm a dummy. That's what the --app flag does.

[kyleboe]

Ok actually I'm not as dumb as I thought (what a sentence).

There are some subtle differences that should be addressed. When passing the --app flag there are other collisions in the generator.

[kyleboe]

Ah yeah sorry I've been working on the PR to fix it. The collisions were in the generated app name. While the parent folder reflects the name passed as the argument (bar in my example) the contents the folder reflect value of the --app flag.

The most clear example of this was in the apps/bar/mix.exs that started with:

defmodule Foo.MixProject do

As well as apps/bar/lib/foo.ex

PR #5691 fixes things in the context of the test suite as well as local manual testing.
