How to maintain the page folder structure in pelican?

Question

I've copied several folders inside the path content/pages. After running the pelican content command, I get the html files converted under the output folder where all the html files are copied under output/pages as a whole.

For ex:

If I have the folder structure:

content

    - pages

           - hello
                  - hello.html

           - world
                  - world.html

I get the output as:

output

     - pages

            - hello.html
            - world.html

I need to retain the original folder structure in the output folder.

The USE_FOLDER_AS_CATEGORY = True option didn't work. Apparently, it works only for Articles not for pages.

Is there any other way to build the folder structure?
