(To ignore `node_modules` in any directory, the .dockerignore file needs to list `**/node_modules`)\n\nWas this pattern written intentionally? If not, I'd be happy to submit a pull request to adjust it.\n\nAnd if possible, could you tell me whether you were aware of the difference between .dockerignore and .gitignore? (I would like to know whether the differences are generally well recognized, or if they tend to slip developers' minds.)\n\nThank you again for maintaining this repository!\n\n[^1]: See [.gitignore doc](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore), [.dockerignore doc](https://docs.docker.com/build/concepts/context/#dockerignore-files), and [a blog post about the differences](https://zzz.buzz/2018/05/23/differences-of-rules-between-gitignore-and-dockerignore/)\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/tomokinakamaru","@type":"Person","name":"tomokinakamaru"},"datePublished":"2025-10-06T05:01:24.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":1},"url":"https://github.com/17135/stackrox/issues/17135"}
