How can you patch files that are in a zipped deploy package?

Hello! When I put a zipped deploy package as my default working directory, it never finds the files to patch. How can I do this?

We do not support patching files inside a zip. This might be an interesting improvement to consider for a future version. Meanwhile, you'll need to unzip / patch / zip your package.

Since all IIS deploys use a zipped package out of the box for TFS tasks, I would suggest adding this as a feature.

Could you deploy and transform post deployment as a next step?
