Is it possible to deploy/copy files in a certain order

[stefan-lz]

Hiya, I would like to be able to deploy files in a certain order, specifically the index.html file after all the other assets have been copied over. This will decrease downtime, as all the assets will be resolvable as soon as index.html is served.

I've worked around this by deploying using these 2 commands:

DIST_FOLDER=build_assets serverless client deploy --no-confirm --no-delete-contents
DIST_FOLDER=build_index serverless client deploy --no-confirm --no-delete-contents

with this config:

custom:
  client:
    bucketName: ${self:provider.domain}
    distributionFolder: ${env:DIST_FOLDER}

Am I missing an easier solution, or could this be better supported in finch?

@stefan-lz I don't think we currently support ordering for the file uploads but that doesn't mean we can't. Your workaround seems pretty clever and functional to me. But I think we'd be happy to accept something that simplifies the process.

@fernando-mc ok cool, I'll have a think how to support this and try come up with something.

This is live in v2.3.0 which is building and deploying now.
