Is there a way to ignore `.dockerignore` for sync?

### Question
We have a repository for our frontend.
Frontend is legacy and is being built by `gulp`.
We have our `dist` directory in `.dockerignore` file in order for it to not being copied during build of the image.

But i want to be able to run `npm run dev` locally (which rebuilds static files in `dist` directory when code is changed) and have changes in `dist` directory propagated to my container.
I want to use Skaffold sync rules for that.

But as long as this directory is in `.dockerignore`, it does not get synchronized.
Is there any way to ignore `.dockerignore` rules during sync phase?
