Hello world

I've been struggling a bit, but I'm sure there must be a generic solution to my problem (as a bbclass perhaps ??)
I'm building a bootable  image (NOT a distribution) for our product.

But I need a simple recipe to copy some files
I have a bunch of files (scripts, configuration files etc) these files are under git control, I want the directory structure in the repository, populated on to the image
so in my git I have something that could look  like this
.
├── bin
├── etc
│   └── file_in-etc
└── usr

I want it overlayed on the target image,

It proved surprisingly difficult when the files are not a precanned part of the recipe (in a files directory). the recipe doesn't know the dirs & files in advance. I managed to get the structure checked out in WORKDIR/git but getting from her to the image still troubles me

I'm sure somebody else had the same issues, but I can t find an elegant solution
any pointers will be highly appreciated

BR
-Lars
