Gulp.src/gulp.dest does not copy images or fonts correctly in [email protected]

[marcelotena]

What were you expecting to happen?

Wrote a task to optimize images using gulp-imagemin and move compressed files to a destination folder.

What actually happened?

Files did not compress and moved files could not be opened. I can see that it also happens when fonts are moved using gulp.src/gulp.dest, resulting files can't be opened.

Everything works correctly if I roll back to version 4.0.2.

Please give us a sample of your gulpfile

Here's a link to my gulpfile: https://github.com/marcelotena/gulp-frontend-starter/blob/main/gulpfile.babel.js

-->

import gulp from 'gulp'
import {default as imagemin, gifsicle, mozjpeg, optipng} from 'gulp-imagemin'

gulp.task('imgmin', () => {
    return gulp.src('./src/img/*')
        .pipe(imagemin([
            gifsicle({interlaced: true}),
            mozjpeg({quality: 60, progressive: true}),
            optipng({optimizationLevel: 5})
        ]))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist/img'));
});

Terminal output / screenshots

No issues are displayed in the terminal.

Please provide the following information:

• OS & version: macOS 12.2.1

Also happens with a simple gulp.src('./node_modules/material-symbols/*.woff2').pipe(gulp.dest('./wwwroot/build/fonts/')).

The file sizes are different, it appears that the files are incorrectly read or copied:

Seems to be some kind of encoding problem, or reading binaries in text mode:

Please see: #2790

TL;DR
try: .src(path, {encoding: false})

Thank you @restless, setting up encoding to false solves the issue.
