[...]Just pull the desired version from quay.io :
$ docker pull quay.io/clastix/kubectl:<desired_version>OR
running :
$ docker build . -t foo.io/bar/kubectl:<desired_version> --build-arg KUBECTL_VERSION=<desired_version> --build-arg TARGETARCH=<target_architecture>or using make utility :
$ make docker-buildN.B. if you like, you can choose desired kubectl version and target architecture as follow :
$ export KUBECTL_VERSION=<desired_version>
$ export TARGETARCH=<target_architecture>otherwise, Makefile will automatically retrieve its default values.
$ docker run --name kubectl quay.io/clastix/kubectl:v1.22.2 version
