I have a file named config.txt, which i used to create configmap myconfig inside minikube cluster.
However, when I use myconfig in a Pod, the name of the file config.txt also shows up as part of the ENV.
How can I correct it?
> cat config.txt
var3=val3
var4=val4
> kubectl create cm myconfig --from-file=config.txt
configmap/myconfig created
> kubectl describe cm myconfig

Pod EVN inspection, notice the line config.txt=var3=val3 expected it to be just var3=val3

Create configmap like this will do the job:
kubectl create cm myconfig --from-env-file=config.txt
