If you want to copy a folder's tree with some type of files:

  # Copy all assets to resources file
  INSTALL(DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/assets/ DESTINATION ${INSTALL_PATH}/assets
          FILES_MATCHING PATTERN "*.dae"  PATTERN "*.jpg")

If you want to copy all files in folders, just remove the FILES_MATCHING patterns.
