thisguy/scratch repository overview

"FROM scratch" is how you start images where you don't want to vendor a whole OS. But practically speaking you do need something, as even a statically linked binary has indirect dependencies, i.e. for DNS resolution, or the version of libc they were compiled with.

This is an attempt to provide a more functional starting point for scratch containers. Presently it provides glibc (as indicated by the tag), and dependencies for hostname resolution.
