Issue created because of some comments (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/ArtifactDeployer+Plugin?focusedCommentId=58003116#comment-58003116) and my own needs.

Example content inside this directory distribution/target/distribution-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-bin/cdInstallation/**

• testDir/testFile1.txt
• testFile2.txt

Files to deploy distribution/target/distribution-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-bin/cdInstallation/
Remote directory \\some-server\Staging\some-directory\CD-Installation-$BUILD_ID

The expected result in Remote directory \\some-server\Staging\some-directory\CD-Installation-$BUILD_ID is

• testDir/testFile1.txt
• testFile2.txt

A deploy with release 0.16 results in this content of Remote directory \\some-server\Staging\some-directory\CD-Installation-$BUILD_ID is

• distribution/target/distribution-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-bin/cdInstallation/testDir/testFile1.txt
• distribution/target/distribution-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-bin/cdInstallation/testFile2.txt

and if the flatten option is used I would get also not the expected content of Remote directory \\some-server\Staging\some-directory\CD-Installation-$BUILD_ID because the testDir is gone.

• testFile1.txt
• testFile2.txt
