[Podman] Re: how does .dockerignore interact with podman?
Den 2020-01-03 kl. 11:55, skrev Robert P. J. Day:
just to be clear, i *understand* the value of .dockerignore when
using docker, given how the build context is bundled and sent to the
daemon. it's not clear what value this has WRT podman, which has no
such daemon.
I think "podman-remote build" would have a similar issue, over varlink ?
To avoid having to package and send any big stuff, over the network...
i.e. normally a tarball is created from the local directory, and then
sent as a stream to the build command - in this case BuildImage API
https://github.com/containers/libpod/blob/master/API.md#BuildImage
So it is nice to have the .dockerignore | .containerignore support
