docker-build-push/UPGRADE.md

Upgrade notes

v1 to v2

• Input path is now called context for consistency with other Docker build tools
• path defaults to current git repository so checkout action is not required in a workflow
• Rename dockerfile input to file for consistency with other Docker build tools
• Rename always_pull input to pull for consistency with other Docker build tools
• Add builder input to be able to choose a builder instance through our setup-buildx action
• Add platforms input to support multi-platform builds
• Add allow input
• Add load input
• Add outputs input
• Add cache-from input (cache_froms removed)
• Add cache-to input
• Rename build_args input to build-args for consistency with other Docker build tools
• Add secrets input
• Review tags input
• Remove repository input. See Simple workflow for migration
• Remove username, password and registry inputs. Login support moved to docker/login-action repo
• Remove tag_with_sha, tag_with_ref, add_git_labels inputs. See Tags with ref and Git labels for migration
