I'm using the mkbootimg tool to generate partitions in my disk image. However, although the directory structure is preseved, the contents of the text file are gone. Anyone know why? I'm using the "directory" option in the json file.

What were you creating? An initrd? A boot partition? A data partition? With which file system? Can you create a minimal example to reproduce the problem?

Please open an in issue on gitlab and provide the details so that I can reproduce the error. I need your json as well as an archive with the files and directory hierarchy in question.
