Current template does not work with @sveltejs/kit 1.0.0-next.477+

[fvsch]

Describe the bug

The project template at https://github.com/sveltejs/kit-template-default/

• was last updated 3 days ago (commit: sveltejs/kit-template-default@a31f069);
• specifies its dependency on @sveltejs/kit as "@sveltejs/kit": "next".

When breaking changes are shipped in SvelteKit that impact this template, it must be updated immediately or every user that creates a new project from this template will have a broken project on their hand. This is especially the case for StackBlitz, which uses https://sveltekit.new/ which redirects to https://stackblitz.com/fork/github/sveltejs/kit-template-default. For instance here's a bug report about this starter being broken: stackblitz/webcontainer-core#803

I tested locally and with the latest version of the template, here are the results with different SvelteKit versions:

@sveltejs/kit version	Result of npm run dev
1.0.0-next.470	500 Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'get')
1.0.0-next.471	500 Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'get')
1.0.0-next.472	ok
1.0.0-next.474	ok
1.0.0-next.475	ok
1.0.0-next.476	ok
1.0.0-next.477	Error: Rename your server hook file from src/hooks.js to src/hooks.server.js
1.0.0-next.478	Error: Rename your server hook file from src/hooks.js to src/hooks.server.js
1.0.0-next.479	Error: Rename your server hook file from src/hooks.js to src/hooks.server.js

Reproduction

Reproductions will only work for the current @sveltejs/kit@next and current HEAD commit of the sveltejs/kit-template-default repo, of course.

Online:

1. Visit https://stackblitz.com/fork/github/sveltejs/kit-template-default (Chrome-based browser or Firefox)
2. Wait for dependency installation to finish and npm run dev to start.
3. The preview frame should show an error.

Locally:

1. Setup:

git clone git@github.com:sveltejs/kit-template-default.git
cd kit-template-default
npm install
npm run dev

2. Open the development server page in a browser.

Would it be possible to have the template pin the version of @sveltejs/kit it was last updated for, until @svelte/kit reaches 1.0.0? That would be much safer for usage in StackBlitz.

[Conduitry]

The problem is that #6586 didn't include a changeset (#6664), and then when #6675 added one later, it didn't include one for create-svelte, so the updated template was never released.

Thanks a bunch @Conduitry! 🎉 ❤️
