Capistrano deployment does not copy config/environments/*.rb files to server

Question

I am trying to deploy a multi environment/multi stage rails 4 project to different servers using Capistrano 3.4.

I have all files in config/environments/<environment>.rb in my git repository, and then use the config/secrets.yml for things which should not be in git.

However, when I deploy, the config/environments/ directory does not exists.

I can add the environment file as a linked file, and store it in the shared directory. But I want to use the version directly from git.

E.g.

set :linked_files, %w{config/database.yml config/secrets.yml config/environments/production.rb}

So, How can I tell Capistrano to include all the files from config/environments/ into the deployment?

UPDATE:

My deploy/production.rblook like this

set :branch, 'master'
set :env, 'production'
set :rails_env, fetch(:env)

server 'prod-server.domain.tld',
       user: 'deploy',
       roles: %w{web app db}

set :deploy_to, "/u/apps/my_app_#{fetch(:env)}"

# Default value for :pty is false
set :pty, true

set :linked_files, %w{config/database.yml config/secrets.yml}
set :linked_dirs, %w{log tmp/pids tmp/cache tmp/sockets vendor/bundle public/system cache}

namespace :deploy do

    after :updated, :cleanup # clean up assets
    before :compile_assets, :migrate # migrate db
    before :published, :compile_assets # compile new assets

end

And when deploying, I actually get this error multiple times

config.eager_load is set to nil. Please update your config/environments/*.rb files accordingly:

But the config is set in the different environments files, they are just not copied.

Okay, I found the problem. A developer had added this line to the .gitattributes.

config/environments/ export-ignore

So when capistrano did the archive to deploy, the files was not included.
