Tagging versions (on Dockerhub)

[takumaw]

Not exactly an issue, but normal docker repositorys have tags for all versions including minor versions.

Reasons why all versions should be better added tags are:

• It's better for developing dockerized version of Gitbucket: reproducing for debugging gets easier when there are specific tags for specific versions.
• It makes docker container stable: in production environment, people can avoid unexpected update by specifying tags to fix their running instances' version.

Common practices for tagging is:

• "VERSIONS": for normal images (best for common use cases) [e.g. 4.20.0]

• "VERSIONS"-"VARIANTS": add only if there are other variants (like alpine-based version, ...) [e.g. 4.20.0-alpine]

• "MAJOR VERSIONS": tags pointing to the latest available minor versions of that major version [e.g. 4 → 4.20.0]

• latest: the tag pointing to the latest version [e.g. latest → 4.20.0]

• stable: the tag pointing to the latest stable version [e.g. stable → 4.20.0, if 4.20.0 is the stable version]

Please see the official repositories at https://hub.docker.com/explore/ for more examples on tagging :)

Thanks! I will try it. :-)

Sorry for ny (very) deplayed reaction. I configured DockerHub to be tagged.

Ah, In automated build, DockerHub seems to create a tag automatically when a tag is created on the GitHub repository.
