Description

Expected behavior

Hi. I have setup skaffold to do file sync. While it works well, there is an issue when interpreting paths during sync.

For eg,

This works:

infer:
   - 'packages/**/src/**/*.*'

This does not work:

infer:
    - './packages/**/src/**/*.*'

Where its the same path but with a ./ in front. So, the file does not get matched during sync:

Information

  • Skaffold version: v1.16.0
  • Operating system: Ubuntu server 20.04

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how skaffold resolves relative paths in sync rules, specifically the handling of './' prefix in file patterns.
