I have an appveyor.yml file that works fine under normal conditions. However, when I add the following artifacts block, it gives me an error:

artifacts:
  - path: **/*.nupkg
  - path: **/*.dll
  - path: **/*.pdb

The error I get is Error parsing appveyor.yml: (Lin: 17, Col: 10, Chr: 180) - (Lin: 17, Col: 11, Chr: 181): While scanning an anchor or alias, did not find expected alphabetic or numeric character.

In the case of the run that resulted in that error, Line 17 is the artifacts: line.

   Changing the line to - path: ./**/*.nupkg seemed to do the trick. Would be nice to get a docs update that discusses this.

   Hi Micah,

   Thanks for pointing this out! We'll update the docs.

   Also, surrounding paths with quotes should work too:

   artifacts:
     - path: "**/*.nupkg"
     - path: "**/*.dll"
     - path: "**/*.pdb"
