Thanks for approving the CI run @tonistiigi. Looks green (kind of expected since no tests exist for the cleanup part and I couldn't figure out how to add one). Let me know if there's something more you'd like me to do. |

I've addressed the comments. PTAL @crazy-max. I eventually came back to this while cleaning up my open PRs. |
If the action is configured to install buildx by default using the input then docker buildx sets up docker build as an alias for buildx making all docker build calls use the buildx builder instead of traditional builders. The action didn't perform cleanup in this case to uninstall the aliases which meant that any future workflows running on same GitHub Actions runner would get the buildx builders even if it did not explicitly request it. This commit tracks if the aliases were installed and removes them during post step of the action if so. Signed-off-by: Ashhar Hasan <[email protected]>

If the action is configured to install buildx by default using the
input then docker buildx sets up docker build as an alias for buildx
making all docker build calls use the buildx builder instead of
traditional builders. The action didn't perform cleanup in this case to
uninstall the aliases which meant that any future workflows running on
same GitHub Actions runner would get the buildx builders even if it did
not explicitly request it.
This commit tracks if the aliases were installed and removes them during
post step of the action if so.
Fixes #125
