[Feature Request] Deal with directories starting or containing a tilde (~)

[a-berg]

Hello, I have started to use ghq and I like it, but there is a small problem (not exactly with ghq, in fact): for some reason (or someone's decision), my corporate bitbucket names personal repositories starting with a tilde, so when I clone (ghq get) a private repo or fork, the structure is
~/Code/<company>/~<username>/<reponame>, which confuses programs like Emacs into thinking they have to go to the home directory then create the folders <username>/<reponame>. Of course this is no fault of ghq, but since there is no way of changing it on my side, I ask you: can you add an option to ignore tildes when creating the folder structure?

Thanks

I'm having the same issue with git.sr.ht repositories, where the user always begins with a tilde.
