Can't run test alias under docker

[rfb]

My goal is to run the test alias as part of a CI/CD routine in Google Cloud Build. My approach is to create a new target in the supplied Dockerfile called test:

FROM clojure:openjdk-17 AS test

WORKDIR /
COPY . /

RUN clj -P -M:test

ENTRYPOINT exec clj -M:test

When I run this image, it just sits there - no output:

$ docker build --target test -t test .
[+] Building 35.8s (8/8) FINISHED
....

$ docker run --rm test

While debugging, I removed env/dev/resources/logback.xml and comparing the output with my non-containerized version. I was able to see where the non-containerized version was enumerating source directories. This lead me to user.clj where watch-deps is setup. When I comment this line out, the test alias will runs in the container.

I'm assuming whatever mechanism watch-deps is using to monitor filesystem changes is failing in Docker's overlayfs? Also, it appears this isn't an issue is not present if I mount the project source as a volume.
