The [`docker buildx bake`][1] command has reached GA; this patch adds
a top-level `docker bake` command as alias for `docker buildx bake` to
improve discoverability and make it more convenient to use.
With this patch:
docker --help
Usage: docker [OPTIONS] COMMAND
A self-sufficient runtime for containers
Common Commands:
run Create and run a new container from an image
exec Execute a command in a running container
ps List containers
build Build an image from a Dockerfile
bake Build from a file
pull Download an image from a registry
push Upload an image to a registry
images List images
...
The command is hidden if buildx is not installed;
docker --help
Usage: docker [OPTIONS] COMMAND
A self-sufficient runtime for containers
Common Commands:
run Create and run a new container from an image
exec Execute a command in a running container
ps List containers
build Build an image from a Dockerfile
pull Download an image from a registry
push Upload an image to a registry
images List images
...
We can do some tweaking after this; currently it show an error
in situations where buildx is missing. We don't account for
"DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0", because this is a new feature that requires
buildx, and cannot be "disabled";
buildx missing;
