alpine-t
=========
Docker image based on Alpine Linux ;)
### What is Alpine ?
Alpine Linux is a Linux distribution built around musl libc and BusyBox.
The image is only 5 MB in size and has access to a package repository
that is much more complete than other BusyBox based images.

### Why ?
Image based `ruby:latest` vs `alpine:latest`:
```
$ docker images
REPOSITORY TAG VIRTUAL SIZE
infoslack/alpine-t latest 161.4 MB
infoslack/t latest 781.5 MB
```
