Hey folks,
tl;dr: We're splitting PHP & HTTP containers in the MediaWiki-Docker[0]
development environment. If you're not currently using
MediaWiki-Docker, you can safely ignore this message.

We're planning to merge a change to the MediaWiki-Docker environment to
split PHP-FPM into a separate container from Apache.[1]
This should improve build efficiency for these images, and remove the
need to duplicate so much stuff (Apache, etc.) between versions of PHP.
It also unblocks support for PHP 7.3/7.4, and upgrades XDebug to the
3.x series.
What you'll need to change in existing setups:
In docker-compose-override.yaml:
* Linux users should specify a MW_DOCKER_UID & MW_DOCKER_GID for all
containers.
In .env:
* Set XDEBUG_ENABLE=true and XHPROF_ENABLE=true if you want the
corresponding extensions turned on.
* If you have an XDEBUG_CONFIG set, it may need updated to reflect
new configuration value names.[2]
Finally, I'd like to get it out the door this week, since it unblocks a
number of requested improvements, but feedback is of course welcome in
Gerrit.[1]
