Hidden files are ignored while building the site

Hello there,

I appreciate that hidden files are not visible to the compiler, but to include a file available in the source folder and make it available in the build?

E.g. the .htaccess file?

Is there any way I can create a folder with static content that must be copied during the building phase? For instance something like /source/static and then configure final location and attributes (like hidden or not) in the config.rb?

Thanks for your suggestions.
