Description Nick Coghlan 2016-05-18 07:01:10 UTC
A common problem with Docker containers in development environments is for disk space to fill up with no longer used images, ad hoc container instances, and no longer used volumes.

To help deal with that, Spotify created the docker-gc script: https://github.com/spotify/docker-gc

Making docker-gc, or a functional equivalent, readily available across Red Hat's container environments (Fedora/RHEL/Atomic Host/CDK), would be a nice quality-of-life improvement for folks making use of Docker for development purposes outside of more managed environments like OpenShift.
