Share workspace as a non-root user on the host about exegol HOT 4 CLOSED

Thank you for raising this issue. It is in fact a problem. In my opinion, it should be implemented wrapper-wise first and then implemented in the images. Transferring this issue to the wrapper repo

from exegol.

I pushed in dev branch a first implementation of the permission sharing between exegol and the host.
It needs some testing before closing this issues and the latest nightly image (or execute the command umask 007 on every shell).

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback,

Indeed this problem is one of the areas of improvement of Exegol ( through many other topics) but it is not currently planned to change the UID of the root user in the context exegol for various reasons.

This does not mean that I do not have other ideas to correct the problem and this issue will be addressed in future versions.

Just to add some precision on @Dramelac's answer. This issue will be addressed soon, it's in the priority list and is in active brainstorming.
