Dev container image builds default to BuildKit (`docker buildx`). Docker-compatible engines that lack an integrated BuildKit — notably [Apple Container](https://github.com/apple/container) accessed through a Docker-API bridge — cannot resolve a locally-built image in a `FROM`, which breaks the dev container build: Zed builds the features image, then a second `FROM <features-image>` build (the UID remap), and BuildKit's docker-container/remote drivers can't see the daemon's local image, failing with `pull access denied`. The daemon's *classic* builder resolves locally-built images, and Zed already generates a BuildKit-free Dockerfile for the non-BuildKit path (multi-stage `FROM` + `COPY --from`, no `RUN --mount`). This wires that path to a setting and makes the remaining build invocations actually use the classic builder. ## Changes - Add a `dev_container_use_buildkit` setting (tri-state): - unset → auto-detect via the `docker buildx` plugin (current behavior) - `false` → force the classic builder - `true` → force BuildKit - When the classic builder is selected, pass `DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0` (and `COMPOSE_DOCKER_CLI_BUILD=0` for compose) to the feature-content build, the compose build, and the UID-remap build, so multi-stage `FROM` of a locally-built image resolves through the daemon's classic builder. - Document the setting in `docs/src/dev-containers.md`. With this setting plus a Docker-API bridge, a real Rails dev container (compose: app + mysql + valkey, with features) builds and starts on Apple Container. ## How to Review - `settings_content.rs` / `dev_container/src/lib.rs` — the new setting and its plumbing into `DevContainerContext`. - `docker.rs` — `Docker::new` honors the setting (`supports_compose_buildkit`), `docker_compose_build` selects the classic builder; unit test `use_buildkit_setting_overrides_buildx_detection`. - `devcontainer_manifest.rs` — `DOCKER_BUILDKIT=0` for the feature-content and UID-remap builds. ## Self-Review Checklist - [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability - [ ] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments - [ ] The content is consistent with the [UI/UX checklist](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) - [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior - [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable Release Notes: - Added a `dev_container_use_buildkit` setting to build dev containers with the classic Docker builder for engines without an integrated BuildKit (e.g. Apple Container)
