name: install_subdir
returns: void
description: |
Installs the entire given subdirectory and its contents from the
source tree to the location specified by the keyword argument
`install_dir`.
*(since 0.45.0, deprecated since 0.60.0)* If the subdirectory does not exist
in the source tree, an empty directory is created in the specified location.
A newly created subdirectory may only be created in the keyword argument
`install_dir`. There are a number of flaws with this method, and it was never
intentionally designed to work this way, please use [[install_emptydir]]
instead.
example: |
For a given directory `foo`:
```text
foo/
bar/
file1
file2
```
`install_subdir('foo', install_dir : 'share', strip_directory : false)` creates
```text
share/
foo/
bar/
file1
file2
```
`install_subdir('foo', install_dir : 'share', strip_directory : true)` creates
```text
share/
bar/
file1
file2
```
`install_subdir('foo/bar', install_dir : 'share', strip_directory : false)` creates
```text
share/
bar/
file1
```
`install_subdir('foo/bar', install_dir : 'share', strip_directory : true)` creates
```text
share/
file1
```
`install_subdir('new_directory', install_dir : 'share')` creates
```text
share/
new_directory/
```
