do you think this should be "+" instead? I guess we expect 0 times to be a bug in the generator (i.e., impossible) but we should still remove it?

this assumes unix path separator -- do we need to handle windows too?

I just updated to use path.basename so it should account for this now - https://nodejs.org/api/path.html#windows-vs-posix
I didn't know about this function until you mentioned it, so let me know if I'm incorrect

does this function also need to account for opaque whiteouts: https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/main/layer.md#opaque-whiteout?
In other words, check that the filename is not .wh..wh..opq? Looking above, it's not clear our extractor logic even handles opaque whiteouts at all 🤔

I think as long as it starts with .wh it should account for it, it looks like out logic checks if a file is or within any whited out file or directory, so if a directory starts with .wh, any files under it should be excluded. I can manually verify though

Okay, I misunderstood how .wh..wh..opq worked, I'll fix this

We were using
.wh.to look for whited out files, but we didn't escape the., so it was a match-any characterWe also weren't following the OpenContainer spec: https://github.com/opencontainers/image-spec/blob/main/layer.md#whiteouts
.wh. needs to be the prefix of the filename. So it either needs to prefix everything (no slashes, just filename) or it needs to prefix the filename after the last slash (full path)
Our current implementation just looks for .wh. to appear anywhere, so we are incorrectly whiting out files. This includes libraries, so all of the node 'which' packages were being skipped, for example
