title: NestJS .env file doesn't get built
body: <p>I'm using dotenv v8.2.0 in my NestJS project, and it has always worked in my production environment. I cloned the project on my new pc, made a .env file with the right variables in the root folder, but the .env file now doesn't get built into the dist folder. </p>
  
  <p>The .env file: </p>
  
  <pre><code>databaseHost=database-di... 
  databasePassword=a3^U...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The setup of my main.ts file (only relevant parts):</p>
  
  <pre><code>import { config } from 'dotenv';
  import * as path from 'path';`
  
  const ENV_FILE = path.join(__dirname, '..', '.env');
  config({ path: ENV_FILE });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I log the dotenv config function, i get the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
    error: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'C:\Users\Jasper\***\dist\.env'

      errno: -4058,
      syscall: 'open',
      code: 'ENOENT',
      path: 'C:\\Users\\Jasper\\***\\dist\\.env'
    }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I look at the dist folder, the .env file does indeed not get ported over, while it used to always work. Logging the variables in the .env folder returns <code>undefined</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?</p>
