From 1c31bb59527fb6722a0916248d01ad53e7845c35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pranav Annam Date: Wed, 12 Feb 2020 04:36:14 +0100 Subject: docs: set the GID in the .env file The .env file needs the UID and GID for a working docker-compose build. If you follow the current instructions, the docker build fails with a clear error message: 'You must define GID in .env' It is still good to update documentation to reduce the burden on new contributors to run into this build failure first.
