docker with bash

This is a Docker image directly derived from the Docker image docker, which is required whenever you need the docker tools within a container.

I use it regularly within Gitlab CI runners. Most recently I was wondering why a specific bash feature (variable indirection) wasn't available in a CI script. The reason was simple: the Docker docker image doesn't contain bash at all.

This image now is derived from the Docker docker image and just adds the bash, sed, gawk, curl, git and python.

I would say: Use it the same way as the original image, you just have the additional stuff now.
