Building directly from a checkout will pull in uncommitted files to or more sneakily files that are git ignored, but not docker ignored. To avoid this, we'll add an option to build from a git archive of HEAD instead. Docker doesn't provide a way to build directly from a git repo, so instead we create a tarball of the current HEAD with git archive and pipe it into the build command. When building from a git archive, we'll still display the warning about uncommitted changes, but we won't add the `_uncommitted_...` suffix to the container name as they won't be included in the build. Perhaps this should be the default, but we'll leave that decision for now.
Kamal: Deploy web apps anywhere
From bare metal to cloud VMs, deploy web apps anywhere with zero downtime. Kamal has the dynamic reverse-proxy Traefik hold requests while a new app container is started and the old one is stopped. Works seamlessly across multiple hosts, using SSHKit to execute commands. Originally built for Rails apps, Kamal will work with any type of web app that can be containerized with Docker.
