Anyone know how order is managed in a SDF deploy? is the folder structure taken into account before file types? so it acctually matters which way I arrange my folders in the deploy file?

Yes, it does matter. That was designed that way so you can add InstallationScripts before/after every deployment of files, objects, etc

cool 🙂

yes, so if you have a saved search, that's driving a script record, make sure you deploy the search first

yes if both objects are in same folder SDF sorts this out but if you specifiy file or folder that is respected. So right now we are back to having everything in same folder. Also triangular dependencies doesnt seem to work.
