I\'m experiencing the same problem as found here: mkdir .ssh in a Dockerfile, folder is not there?
I\'m wondering if there is a way for my dockerfile to remove a volume

Actually I did have a very similar use case in using an image from production that would be modified for testing. The only chance is to modify the metadata of the parent image. As I need to that regulary, I have created a little script for that, have a look at docker-copyedit if that can help you.
