When you use the dir field in a build step, you are setting the working directory to its value and in this case, assuming your source files are not in that working directory and from what you have mentioned that it’s deploying empty, it’s not finding your source files and you can check this if you go to your deployed application versions, under “diagnose” right click on tools -> source and you will be able to see the files that were deployed.
