Missing .angular-cli.json file: Angular

Question

I've created Angular2 project using Angular-cli with the following command:

ng new project-name 

but, I don't see .angular-cli.json file in my root folder of the project. The angular-cli version I'm using is 1.0.2. I've created multiple projects with cli in the past and have never encountered this problem. Is it because of the recent update? If yes, where can I find the json file? Or do I need to create it manually?

Update: With Angular 6.0.0 the filename is changed from .angular-cli.json to angular.json.

.angular-cli.json is a hidden file since @angular/cli version 1.0.

The file got the prefix . with this version 1.0 , so it is hidden as @JB Nizet commented.

The change is described in the wiki of @angular/cli stories 1.0 update

The location of this file is unchanged.

When you create a new project with @angular/cli 1.0.2, the message

create .angular-cli.json

is displayed.
