[Qbs] Recursive file installation and preserve the folder structure

[Ben Lau]

Hello,

I would like to write to QBS file to install a folder of files to a target
directory recursively. That is the folder structure

.
├── A
│   ├── 1
│   │   └── A1.txt
│   └── A.txt
└── installer.qbs

And that is the qbs file:

import qbs
import qbs.Environment

Project {
    Product {
        Group {
            name: "all"
            files: "**"
            qbs.install: true
            qbs.installRoot: "/tmp/qbs"
        }
    }
}

However, if I run the qbs by `qbs install -v`. All the files will be copied
in the same folder. The directory structure is broken.

$ qbs install -v

DEBUG: Copying file '/Users/benlau/src/github/junkcode/qt/qbs/A/1/A1.txt'
into target directory '/tmp/qbs'.

DEBUG: Copying file '/Users/benlau/src/github/junkcode/qt/qbs/A/A.txt' into
target directory '/tmp/qbs'.

$ ls /tmp/qbs

A.txt A1.txt

Any method to preserve the folder structure during installation?

Thx for any advise
