// A non-directory will be copied only once, only from within it's past
|
||||
// occurrence. I.e. if file /a/b was found in layers 0 and 2, only the file
|
||||
// from layer 2 will be used.
|
||||
// Directories will always be copied, even if there are duplicates. This is
|
||||
// to avoid a situation like this:
|
||||
// layer0:
|
||||
// - ./dir/
|
||||
// - ./dir/file
|
||||
// ./dir/
|

// ./dir/file

// layer1:
|
||||
// - ./dir/
|
||||
// - ./dir/file
|
||||
// ./dir/
|
||||
// ./dir/file
|
||||
// In theory, the directory from layer 1 takes precedence, so a tarball like
|
||||
// this could be created:
|
||||
// - ./dir/ (from layer1)
|
||||
// - ./dir/file1 (from layer1)
|
||||
// ./dir/ (from layer1)
|
||||
// ./dir/file1 (from layer1)
|
||||
// However, imagine the following:
|
||||
// layer0:
|
||||
// - ./dir/
|
||||
// - ./dir/file1
|
||||
// ./dir/
|
||||
// ./dir/file1
|
||||
// layer1:
|
||||
// - ./dir/
|
||||
// ./dir/
|
||||
// Then the resulting tarball would have:
|
||||
// - ./dir/file1 (from layer1)
|
||||
// - ./dir/ (from layer0)
|
||||
// ./dir/file1 (from layer1)
|
||||
// ./dir/ (from layer0)
|
||||
// Which would mean `untar` would try to untar a file to a directory which
|
||||
// was not yet created. Therefore directories will be copied to the resulting
|
||||
// tar in the order they appear in the layers.
