I've created my own deploy.cmd for customizing my app's behavior when pulling new code but, unfortunately, I can't see it in the site\deployments\tools folder where it usually belongs.

Typically, the file is auto-generated and placed in the tools folder automatically and I've been successfully modifying it. I've been advised to simply place it in the root of my repository and it will be handled automatically. After doing that, I'm unable to find the deploy.cmd file in the expected place.

Where is it?

It is normal for it not to be there when you use a custom deployment script. It only ends up there when your script is generated.

Generally speaking, you should never modify this file when you see it in the tools folder. It is stored there as a cache for the system. You either use a custom deployment script, or you end up using the generated one.

It sounds like you forgot to add a .deployment file alongside deploy.cmd. Without it, it will be ignored. It should contain:

[config]
command = deploy.cmd

See this post for details.

I definitely do have the .deployment file going along with it. I can confirm that the deploy.cmd had the desired effect, I just don't see it in the tools dir
Why do you want it in the tools dir? That is an implementation detail. It is not supposed to be there when you have a custom deployment script.
If that's the intended behavior, then that's fine with me :)
I added a separate answer now that issue is understood. You can ignore this one and accept the other one.
