remap docker user to host user.

Problem

When I use docker to work with the shared workspace with host under Ubuntu, I find that files created by docker user is owned by root. This is not the same with macOS.

Maybe this is becuase docker is run by root user and the default user mapping mechanism is to map container-root to host-user or host-root. So can I map the container-root or container-any-user to host-current-user?

Fortunately the latest docker supports the re-map the container user to any host user via Linux namespace. Refer to this.

Linux namespace
