Title: Don't dereference symlinks when deploying via copy

Hi,

I noticed that the the behaviour of the copy strategy differs from the remote checkout strategy.

The remote checkout strategy does not dereference symlinks, and it seems strange to
have a different behaviour between the two strategies.

Maybe this change should be offered as an option to preserve backwards compatibility. I'd be happy to submit another pull request with that available.

Let me know what you think.

Best wishes

David Heath
