Shipit-deploy: copy previous release

See original GitHub issue

When deploying with shipit staging deploy, i can see in terminal logs:

Copy previous release to "/home/xy/projectX/releases/20181127210354"
Running "cp -a /home/xy/projectX/releases/20181125015850/. /home/xy/projectX/releases/20181127210354" on host "dummy.com".
Copy project to remote servers.
"copy" method is deprecated, please use "copyToRemote", "copyFromRemote", "scpCopyToRemote" or "scpCopyFromRemote". It will break in v5.0.0.
Copy "/Users/xy/projectX/dist/" to "xy@dummy.com:/home/xy/projectX/releases/20181127210354" via rsync

Copy previous release

Can you explain what it is used for? This task takes a lot of time, although it is not needed becuase new files were pulled/copied from local, and i can’t see any of the copied files in the new directory. So I guess they were overwritten afterwards by my new files from rsyncFrom.

Instead of modifying the code you should set shipit.config.copy to false this way you achieve the same goal without messing with the code.

This should be in the docs. Great help.
