It is necessary to simplify life on shared hosting when publishing laravel. How?

Question

Laravel

Now I have something like this folder structure:

site.ru
laravel-apps
...site-1.0.1
...site-1.0.2

That is, site.ru contains public content with edited index.php, and laravel-apps versions lie. Even in site.ru there is a symbolic link storage to the storage folder in the corresponding version.

Now the filling process is quite dreary for me.
1. I upload the new version and database
2. I transfer the current version to maintenance mode
3. I copy the storage of the current version to the new version
4. I update the site.ru, index.php resources and the symbolic link.
And everything works.

It would be nice to at least get rid of the stage of copying storage from one version to another. Is it possible to somehow take storage out of version limits, and make a symbolic link to it. Will it work? That is, will the application have problems with access when writing to the directory? I don't really know much about server administration and symbolic links.
