Bug description
I got an error when installing docker-compose:
Unfortunately it does not really point me to any actionable item:
Unable to install docker-compose binary: Command execution failed with exit code 1: Command execution failed with exit code 1
- Which command failed?
- Was there stderr output?
- Why does it say "failed with exit code 1" twice?
(I'm not super interested in resolving this error, as I can probably just run brew install docker-compose or something else)
Operating system
