New files are not synced to running container.

[drover25]

When a new file which matches the glob in sync.manual is created, it is not synced to the running container. Changes to existing files are synced as expected.

This behaviour first appears in 1.17

Expected behavior

New files which match sync.manual are synced to the running container.

Actual behavior

The new file is not picked up

I'm experiencing this too allthough strangely only on one artifact of 5 I have running in a build

[martinseanhunt]

I just realised I was running 1.17.0 and upgrading to 1.17.1 seems to have solved this for me.

I'm experience this issue with 1.17.1 (running pop/ubuntu20.10 & minikube). However, going back to 1.16.0 I don't have any sync issues with newly created files.

@martinseanhunt 1.17.1 should also have the same issue.
@InsideGH you are right, 1.16.0 will address this issue.

Fixed it in https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/skaffold/releases/tag/v1.17.2

Thanks so much for the quick turnaround on this!
