Luca De Vitis commented on GROOVY-7906:
---------------------------------------
These are all useful workaround, but I would like that we don't miss the real
issue here.
Bash syntax is kind of a super-set of the sh syntax: it is wrong for an sh
script to source a bash script. Might be acceptable the other way around:
however I wouldn't do that either. Just pick up one and stick with it.
In fact, I think that "no bash, busybox only" is not correct. You can have bash
on alpine, as long as you tell me that you need it.
This problem is coming from the fact that many Linux distributions ship bash as
an sh interpreter, but bash is not exactly sh compliant and that led to the
misconception that sh and bash are so similar.
