Using the persistent/shared workarea

Since devbox containers are intended to be disposable, the image is configured with a "volume" at /shared.

There are a couple of ways you can leverage that volume. Either attach it to a host-local directory:

docker run -it -v $(pwd)/workarea:/shared --rm itzg/devbox

or run a "base" container and mounts the /shared from that onto any subsequent containers:

docker run --name devbox-base itzg/devbox touch /shared/READY
...later...
docker run -it --volumes-from devbox-base --rm itzg/devbox

NOTE I am using the --rm option so the devbox containers will be truly "burn after use".
