      Hi people, sorry for the stupid question, I must have missed something in the docs. I have an old Earthfile (version 0.5) and upgraded it to version 0.8 but now the COPY ./ ./ does no longer work. It is easily fixed using COPY . . but I really want to understand the difference and why this was changed. Thanks
