When using GUI-managed local stack files in Komodo, .env files are not shown in the "Info" tab unless added as an "Additional Env File" in addition to the "env file path" in config. I've tried redeploying a few times and need to add .env to the additional files list for it to show up every time. Docker compose recognizes the file regardless and uses it without an issue, it just isn't GUI editable without the second reference.

The workaround of adding it again as an additional env file functions fine, but would be nice for it to automatically recognize it and put it in the GUI without having to manually put it in twice.
