Running make docker to build new binaries produces this error message:

fatal: unsafe repository ('/path/to/repo' is owned by someone else)
To add an exception for this directory, call:

        git config --global --add safe.directory /path/to/repo

A brief Google search leads me to these resources:

One of the workarounds given:

  • run the container as a user that has access to the mounted directory

The upside is that it runs the build container without root privileges, which is a win in itself.

Fix unsafe repo error from Alpine build containers
235e7ea 
Resolve the `fatal: unsafe repository
('/path/to/repo' is owned by someone else)` error message
thrown by newer Git versions by:

- execute Alpine Docker build containers as non-root user
  - attempt current UID by default, fallback to trying UID 1000
- explicitly set `GOCACHE` environment variable to `/tmp/`
  within build container
  - resolve permission issue with the go toolchain attempting to
    use `/.cache` by default within the Docker container
