This container image contains Alpine Linux with the Skarnet S6 supervisor, and

the S6 overlay installed. It is intended as a base image for other containerized

applications. It is not intended to be generally useful outside that context and

support is provided purely on a best effort basis.

This base image creates slightly chunkier base images. The images are still

relatively small and performant, but include some niceties that other containers

don't bother including like cron, logrotate, and bash. It also includes a

non-root userid which can be mapped to a userid outside the container for the

purposes of keeping permissions sane on the mounted data volume.
