ADD tar does not work.

[xingao267]

Actual behavior and how to reproduce
ADD tar files in Dockerfile does not work properly with Kaniko.

Dockerfile content

FROM alpine:3.9
ENTRYPOINT ["sh"]
ADD tarfile.tar /

tarfile.tar is simple tarball that contains a test.txt file inside.

Command I run:

docker run -v <path_to_my_local_context_dir>:/workspace gcr.io/kaniko-project/executor:latest --dockerfile Dockerfile --context /workspace --reproducible --no-push --tarPath=/workspace/image.tar -d "someimage"

docker load -i image.tar

docker run -it someimage

The content of tarfile.tar is not unpacked and made available at / in the container.

Expected behavior
There should be a file named test.txt exist in the / in the container.

Additional Information

• Dockerfile
  See above

• Build Context
  Please provide or clearly describe any files needed to build the Dockerfile (ADD/COPY commands)
  Create a simple tarball that contains a txt file, and use that in build context.

• Kaniko Image (fully qualified with digest)
  gcr.io/kaniko-project/executor@sha256:d9fe474f80b73808dc12b54f45f5fc90f7856d9fc699d4a5e79d968a1aef1a72

Hey @xingao267 thanks for submitting this issue. I just merged #717, could you see if this solves this problem? You can run gcr.io/kaniko-project/executor:0694be3e85e127ed597fdb068b1f91c4478806f8 to try the latest version of the image.
