Description
I would like to export sourcemaps but strip out all comments.
I have the following in my tsconfig (this is loaded via ts-loader)
"removeComments": true,
"sourceMap": true,
My webconfig
devtool: ''source-map"
However all my comments are there, plain for all to see.
The sourcemaps export fine.
How do I remove the comments from these sourcemaps?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported ts-loader configuration with TypeScript's removeComments and sourceMap options, together with webpack's source-map devtool setting. Determine whether the generated sourcemaps still contain comments; done when the behavior is fixed or the supported configuration is clearly documented.
