Is there any way we can make the ASP.NET 4.5 Bundling functionality generate GUID's as part of the querystring when running in debug mode (e.g bundling turned OFF).

The problem is when developing locally, the scripts/CSS files are generated like this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/Content/Scripts/myscript.js" />

So if i change that file, i need to do a hard-refresh (sometimes a few times) to get the file to be picked up by the browser - annoying.

Is there any way we can make it render out like this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/Content/Scripts/myscript.js?v=x" />

Where x is a GUID (e.g always unique).

Ideas?

I'm on ASP.NET MVC 4.
