-#### Template Component Dependencies
-
-When applying templates, certain components have dependencies on others. Here are the key relationships to be aware of:
-
-- `--users`: Depends on `--permissions`. If you include users, permissions will automatically be included.
-- `--permissions`: Depends on `--schema`. If you include permissions, the schema will automatically be included.
-- `--content`: Depends on `--schema`. If you include content, the schema will automatically be included.
-- `--files`: No direct dependencies, but often related to content. Consider including `--content` if you're including files.
-- `--flows`: No direct dependencies, but may interact with other components. Consider your specific use case.
-- `--dashboards`: No direct dependencies, but often rely on data from other components.
-- `--extensions`: No direct dependencies, but may interact with other components.
-- `--settings`: No direct dependencies, but affects the overall system configuration.
-
-When using the `--partial` flag, keep these dependencies in mind. For example:
-
-```
-npx directus-template-cli@latest apply -p --directusUrl="http://localhost:8055" --directusToken="admin-token-here" --templateLocation="./my-template" --templateType="local" --partial --users
-```
-
-This command will automatically include `--permissions` and `--schema` along with `--users`, even if not explicitly specified.
-
-If you use `--no-` flags, be cautious about excluding dependencies. For instance, using `--no-schema` while including `--content` may lead to errors or incomplete application of the template.

+## Partial Templates and Relation Strategies
+
+Partial templates can intentionally omit components or collections. The CLI writes and reads `src/template-meta.json` so apply can understand what was extracted.
+
+Partial templates have two scopes:
+
+- **Schema scope**: the data model needed to keep selected collections valid. This can include related, junction, translation, page-builder, and grouping collections even when no records are exported for them.
+- **Content scope**: the records exported from collections requested with `--collections`, or records added by `deep`.
+
+Example: extracting `pages,posts` may still include schema for `page_blocks`, block collections, translations, and groups. Only `pages.json` and `posts.json` are exported unless you use `deep`.
+
+Relation strategies:
+
+| Strategy   | What it exports            | What happens to omitted relations                                           | Best for                                    |
+| ---------- | -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
+| `empty`    | Selected content only      | M2O fields become `null`; alias/O2M/M2M/M2A fields are omitted from records | Clean subsets, skipping assets safely       |
+| `preserve` | Selected content only      | Keeps IDs/arrays as-is and writes warnings                                  | Targets where related records already exist |
+| `deep`     | Selected + related content | Keeps relation values and recursively exports related records               | Portable partial snapshots                  |
+
+Tradeoffs:
+
+- `empty` produces directly applyable templates, but applying to an existing instance can clear omitted M2O references.
+- `preserve` can intentionally leave references to records that are not in the template. Apply requires `--allow-broken-relations` when metadata reports these references.
+- `deep` is the most portable, but can expand into many collections and export much more data.
+
+For example, a source record might contain both a file relation and a page-builder alias field:
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "post-1",
+  "image": "file-uuid",
+  "blocks": ["block-1", "block-2"]
+}
+```
+
+With `--relation-strategy empty`, omitted relations are cleared or skipped:
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "post-1",
+  "image": null
+}
+```
+
+With `--relation-strategy preserve`, relation values stay in the record and metadata records warnings:
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "post-1",
+  "image": "file-uuid",
+  "blocks": ["block-1", "block-2"]
+}
+```
+
+With `--relation-strategy deep`, the record stays the same and related content collections are exported too:
+
+```jsonc
+// content/posts.json
+{
+  "id": "post-1",
+  "image": "file-uuid",
+  "blocks": ["block-1", "block-2"],
+}
+
+// also exported:
+// content/page_blocks.json
+// content/block_hero.json
+```
+
+Skip assets safely:
+
+```
+npx directus-template-cli@latest apply -p --directusUrl="http://localhost:8055" --directusToken="admin-token-here" --templateLocation="./my-template" --templateType="local" --content --collections posts,pages --no-assets --relation-strategy empty
+```
+
 ## Logs
 
 The Directus Template CLI logs information to a file in the `.directus-template-cli/logs` directory.
 
 Logs are automatically generated for each run of the CLI. Here's how the logging system works:
-   - A new log file is created for each CLI run.
-   - Log files are stored in the `.directus-template-cli/logs` directory within your current working directory.
-   - Each log file is named `run-[timestamp].log`, where `[timestamp]` is the ISO timestamp of when the CLI was initiated.

+- Log files are stored in the `.directus-template-cli/logs` directory within your current working directory.
+- Each log file is named `run-[timestamp].log`, where `[timestamp]` is the ISO timestamp of when the CLI was initiated.
 
 The logger automatically sanitizes sensitive information such as passwords, tokens, and keys before writing to the log file. But it may not catch everything. Just be aware of this and make sure to remove the log files when they are no longer needed.
