Description

If a user switches to Windows containers and builds an image using the docker build command as it (using the legacy builder), the Builds tab is not populated. This is because the build history is provided by Buildkit. To populate the Builds tab, the customer must either set DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 or use the buildx build command.

Current documentation does not mention this and a support ticket was raised.

@chaomonica Would you like me to merge this now, or do you want me to wait for @karman-docker approval too?

looks good to me. @chaomonica I am assuming you have tested this with DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 and able to see the build history.
