Changes to config of nginx and supervisor are not persisted

[tdudgeon]

Some configuration changes (e.g. https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/admin/nginx.html#proxying-galaxy-with-nginx) require modifications to files such as /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and /etc/supervisor/supervisord.conf but these are outside of the /export directory so these changes will not be persisted if the container is restarted.
Can these be transferred to somewhere under /export and symlinked to the actual location?

Yes we can do this.

What changes you want to do in those files?

For Nginx I was trying to set it up to transfer and receive files:
https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/admin/nginx.html#sending-files-with-nginx
https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/admin/nginx.html#receiving-files-with-nginx

And setting up the receiving files bit mentions that the umask needs to be set in the supervisor config file.
