When creating a NuGet package, can I modify existing source code files?

Question

I'm trying to create a series of NuGet packages for local use within my organization.

I'm aware I can create source-code transformation files (i.e. MyModel.cs.pp) to help with adding new source code files, i.e.:

namespace $rootnamespace$.Models {
    public struct CategoryInfo {
        public string categoryid;
        public string description;
    }
}

But what if I want to modify an existing source-code file? Is there any way to do this? Perhaps using PowerShell?

Can you point us at a simple example that uses the Code Model from within a NuGet package?

@Simon Gill It's not pretty:- stackoverflow.com/a/13255356/11635 I used the related answer I cited on the question
