Is it possible to control file naming?

I am using docfx for generate the documentation for the Auth0 .NET SDK and have set up and automated build process with AppVeyor.

I have managed to generate the documentation with docfx automatically as part of the build pipeline, and after the build has been completed I want to upload the generated documentation to an Amazon S3 bucket.

In order to do that I need to define the generated documentation output as a build artifact in Appveyor. It seems that AppVeyor uploads their build artifacts to Google Storage, but Google Storage seems to have a problem with some of the file names generated by docfx for generic types which contains the ` character.

So I wonder if there is any way to tell docfx to not use the ` character for those filenames, but instead something else like a tilde (~) for example?

docfx will support renaming YAML files generated by docfx metadata in v1.4. v1.4 is now in preview stage and published to https://www.myget.org/feed/Packages/docfx-dev. It will be officially published to nuget after next week. In v1.4, you can have your own script to rename the generated YAML file before calling docfx build.

That sounds great, thanks @vicancy
