[PATCH v1 0/1] ci: facilitate dev to mimic a CI environment

[Σταύρος Ντέντος]

From: Stavros Ntentos <133706+stdedos@users.noreply.github.com>

While trying to mimic a CI environment (to be able to
locally run tests in isolation), I didn't find enough
instructions how to do so - even though the project has CI set up.

Attempt to bridge the gap, by providing a starting/discussion point.

locally run tests in isolation), I didn't find enough
instructions how to do so - even though the project has CI set up.

Leave instructions for people that want to
run a ci-like isolated environment locally.

Wait, why did you make this documentation /bin/false script? I think
it is better to be in Asciidoc format (.txt)

My full intention was to actually _create_ a script that would put a
wanna-be developer (me) from (a) looking at my terminal inside git/,
to (b) have a ci-like environment, inside an abstraction layer (docker)
with linked sources (i.e. the "${PWD}:/usr/src/git" part).

However, the way sources and docker invocation are defined, I find it hard
to create "the script". Also because (again) my docker knowledge is limited.

I want future nitpick-fixers (hopefully with more docker experience),
to look at this script with such agenda in mind - and not to "just"
document their findings alongside mine.

`#!/bin/false` is simply my way of saying "it's not ready to be run yet",
and I used `.sh` to get formatting / syntax highlighting cheaper than
running a fully-fledged .md file.

If you still insist it's no good as a ".sh",
my intention would be to make it .md (to get some formatting in it).
