Doesn't include `dist` folder

[jerone]

I'm having a very similar issue with the dist folder.
Via npm there is no issue.

np --preview:

The following new files will be published for the first time:
- LICENSE
- package.json
- README.md

npm publish --dry-run:

npm notice === Tarball Contents ===
npm notice 35.1kB LICENSE
npm notice 1.3kB  README.md
npm notice 767B   dist/main.js
npm notice 919B   dist/main.js.map
npm notice 611B   dist/module.js
npm notice 915B   dist/module.js.map
npm notice 1.7kB  package.json

.npmignore:

*
!dist/**
!package.json
!LICENSE
!README.md

What version of np are you on? Since #682 (np v8.0.0), we just use npm itself to figure out what files are included.

What's the output if you run npm pack --dry-run?

The latest version 10.

Exactly the same result as seen above with npm publish --dry-run.

Yarn gives the same result as npm.

I tried running np with yarn via np --preview --package-manager=yarn and I got the same missing results.

What I do find surprising is that the files in the dist/ folder are also not mentioned in the ? The following new files will not be part of your published package: section.

Finally had time to do a real publish to NPM and confirmed that the dist/ files are included in the package, while the message didn't mention them.

Maybe I do not understand the message correctly. It says The following new files will be published for the first time:. Keyword new, but the mentioned new files are definitely not new.
