Now I'll need to handle lots and lots of file extensions and sub-directories and make the Qbs project inflate in size just because of these. Or is there a better way?

See the qbs.installSourceBase property, documented here: http://doc.qt.io/qbs/qbs-module.html#installsourcebase

I'm guessing you want something like the following:

Group {
    name: "Assets"
    files: ["assets/**"]
    qbs.install: true
    qbs.installDir: destinationDirectoryPath + "/assets"
    qbs.installSourceBase: "assets"
}
