in 2.79, Rigify auto-calculates bone rolls but there's no option to use custom rolls, and the auto-calculation doesn't always work as needed

If you, for example, have an arm with a hand either positioned differently or rotated, then click the [Generate] button, it will result in a hand with the axes completely offset from desired in use

I don't really know how much this affects other areas of the body (in my actual rig) but the hand's roll/rotation axis is so offset after generation right now that they have to be manually recalculated before any actual usage.

automatic worksas designed.
The option is on the limb's first bone in the metarig. Just select it (upper_arm.L i guess) in pose mode and switch from automatic to the axis you want. Default is X. Then you have to take care of bone rolls though.
