AssemblyInfo patching with specified directory root fails

I am trying to limit AssemblyInfo patching to projects residing in one directory (Sources). I've tried setting patching path to Sources\**\AssemblyInfo.* (in UI), but it doesn't work (file stays unpatched). When I use **\AssemblyInfo.*, it works. What am I doing wrong?

PS Is there any way to get more detailed assembly patching log during build?

   Will take a look.

   It matches against full path, so the following should work:

   **\Sources\**\AssemblyInfo.*

   Yes, I can confirm that it works.

   Still, I think that it is counter-intuitive, and the path should be relative to APPVEYOR_BUILD_FOLDER (and anyone wishing so could use \ in front to force full path).

   Also it doesn't work with {APPVEYOR_BUILD_FOLDER}\Sources\**\AssemblyInfo.* - what's wrong there?

   And I still think it'd be very helpful to have some info in addition to Patching AssemblyInfo...Done, something like: Patched file: <full file path> and warning: No files to patch found.

   Agree, it should match against relative path for sure. Will add a bug.
