Those images are just standard CentOS base images, but:
- With all the package updates installed weekly.
- Squashed to single layer for smaller size.
Version numbers use SemVer and they reflect changes done in this repo - they are NOT related to CentOS versioning. For example, each weekly build will rise version number on last place, meaning patch level update.
CentOS Team stopped updating their base images on Docker hub. They moved to quay.io now, but even there images for CentOS 7 and CentOS 8 are around half a year old. I decided to rebuild them weekly, installing all updates.
