For my use case of copying template files to a location outside of the public webroot using the html task, I needed a way of adjusting the asset URIs that the rev tasks generate – for example if dest is ./dist and stylesheets.dest is public/assets/css, I would end up with an entry in rev-manifest.json like "public/assets/css/site.css": "public/assets/css/site-1234567890.css", which obviously wouldn't match against the actual asset URL in my markup.

What I did was add an additional webroot option to path-config.json. If that is set, it is considered the base path of the final URIs that are stored in rev-manifest.json. Using my example above, I would set "webroot": "public" and end up with "assets/css/site.css": "assets/css/site-1234567890.css".

I went back and forth a few times on what to call that new setting (assetsRoot, rootPath....), so feel free to rename it to whatever you feel is most appropriate if you decide to accept this PR.

…sks to generate correct asset URIs when the main `dest` is different from the final public folder.

Looks good - but the README calls the option webroot, while the code is referencing rootPath. Update those references to webroot and I think this is good to go. Sorry for the delay!

Sorry about that! I went back and forth a couple times on what to name that config option. Just pushed an update making it webroot everywhere.
