"Dockerfile is excluded by pattern" error seems incorrect

See original GitHub issue

Dupe of #286 by request.

The Docker docs say:

You can even use the .dockerignore file to ignore the Dockerfile and .dockerignore files. This is useful if you are copying files from the root of the build context into your new container but do not want to include the Dockerfile or .dockerignore files (e.g. ADD . /someDir/).

To the maintainers of this project: When #286 was closed, was an intentional choice made to create divergent functionality in docker-java, or was it unclear at the time that a Dockerfile may be validly excluded by a .dockerignore file?

If docker allows, then code could be changed.
