Packer 1.0.2 doesnt copy some of the hidden files in the AMI image

[Pradeep Patra]

Hi all,

I am building a AMI image (Base Image- CentOS 7 + Some additional support packages). After installing the image in AWS I saw that some of the files are not made to the packer image.(.screenrc) etc. 

Can anyone please let me know how can I fix these issues? 

packer build -var-file=Cred.json -var 'version_number=SWv1' provisioner.json

Regards

Pradeep
