-# will be used to update the description on Docker hub.
-
-# custom comments in dockerfiles:
-
-# `# platforms: `
-#    Comma separated list of platforms, i.e. `# platforms: linux/386,linux/amd64`. Docker platforms can alternatively
-#    be listed in a file named `.docker_platforms`.
-# `# platforms_pr: `
-#    Comma separated list of platforms to run for PR events, i.e. `# platforms_pr: linux/amd64`. This will take
-#    precedence over the `# platforms: ` directive.
-# `# artifacts: `
-#    `true` to build in two steps, stopping at `artifacts` build stage and extracting the image from there to the
-#    GitHub runner.
