Referring to the BuildTools Readme, supposedly there's a way to specify the OutputDirectory and/or the OutputFileName, However I haven't been able to figure out a way to do this. I've tried the following:

  <PropertyGroup>
    ...
    <TransformOnBuild>true</TransformOnBuild>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <ItemGroup>
    ...
    <PackageReference Include="T4.BuildTools" Version="3.0.0-preview-0049-g4f33c8d8b1" />
  </ItemGroup>
    ...
  <ItemGroup>
    <T4Transform Include="foo.tt">
      <OutputDirectory>test</OutputDirectory>
    </T4Transform>
  </ItemGroup>
  <PropertyGroup>
    ...
    <TransformOnBuild>true</TransformOnBuild>
    <OutputDirectory>test</OutputDirectory>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <ItemGroup>
    ...
    <PackageReference Include="T4.BuildTools" Version="3.0.0-preview-0049-g4f33c8d8b1" />
  </ItemGroup>
    ...
  <ItemGroup>
    <T4Transform Include="foo.tt" />
  </ItemGroup>

Are these two options supported yet?

Ultimately, I just want to copy these text file templates to the build output, however this didn't work either:

  <PropertyGroup>
    ...
    <TransformOnBuild>true</TransformOnBuild>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <ItemGroup>
    ...
    <PackageReference Include="T4.BuildTools" Version="3.0.0-preview-0049-g4f33c8d8b1" />
  </ItemGroup>
    ...
  <ItemGroup>
    <T4Transform Include="foo.tt" />
    <Content Include="foo.txt" CopyToOutputDirectory="true" />
  </ItemGroup>

I can confirm that the foo.txt file is being generated, just next to the template file, which I'd assume is the default.
