Specifies whether to create the project and perform parameter replacement in the specified location, or perform parameter replacement in a temporary location and then save the project to the specified location.
remark: CreateInPlace is an optional element. The default value is true.
-- https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/extensibility/createinplace-visual-studio-templates?view=vs-2019

I found out by comparing with other .vstemplate on the Github. Also, despite the remark is not true, it clearly made a difference when you explicitly set it to true.
