Hi All,

I spent time to find answer but without success. I found this email on main
Alpine web site. Can someone explain what does it mean "set -xe" command in
Dockerfile? Context is:

RUN set -xe && apk add ...

Thanks,
Ivan

Basically makes the shell write traces for expanded commands before they're
executed, and for the shell to exit on non-zero exit statuses:

       −x    The  shell  shall  write  to  standard  error  a trace for
each command after it expands the command and before it executes it. It is
             unspecified whether the command that turns tracing off is
traced.


       −e    When this option is on, when any command fails (for any of the
reasons listed in Section 2.8.1, Consequences of Shell  Errors  or  by
             returning an exit status greater than zero), the shell
immediately shall exit with the following exceptions: *(...)*
