zulip/tools/ci/Dockerfile

# Dockerfile for a generic Ubuntu image with just the basics we need
# to make it suitable for CI.  In particular:
#  * a non-root user to run as (a pain to try to do in setup,
#    because by then we've already cloned the repo);
#  * Git and other basic utilities.

# To rebuild from this file for a given release, say Ubuntu 18.04 bionic:
#   docker build . --build-arg=BASE_IMAGE=ubuntu:18.04 --pull --tag=zulip/ci:bionic
#   docker push zulip/ci:bionic

# checkout installs source code using Rest API as an optimization
# if the version is less than v2.18, which causes failure in provision
# and tests because of the lack of git being initialized.
