Please support deploying function app from sub folder in root of repository

[Xuejun Li]

Posted new issue here(Azure/Azure-Functions#2065) before, but I was suggested to create a ticket here.
Refer to this wiki: https://github.com/projectkudu/kudu/wiki/Customizing-deployments#deploying-a-specific-folder-for-a-node-php-or-aspnet-site
If the folder you want to deploy is not the root of the repository, you can specify which folder to deploy. e.g.

[config]
project = MyWebRoot

This is not working for Function app with local git enabled.
Reproduce steps:

create Nodejs function app
enable local git from deployment center
function app is in sub folder in root of the repository as screenshot

create .deployment in the root of repository

commit the code, got error: Source and destination directories cannot be sub-directories of each other
