[BUG] COMPOSE_REMOVE_ORPHANS only works as a shell variable, not in environment files #11707
Description
Description
Following up from #11374 (thanks the speedy fix!) I have found that if I place it in an .env file, the value is ignored.
Running COMPOSE_REMOVE_ORPHANS=1 docker compose up -d does, however, work.
The .env file is read if I specify COMPOSE_IGNORE_ORPHANS='1' because the warning about orphans then goes away (even though the orphan isn't cleaned up).
Again - apologies if this is officially unsupported, although the docs do talk about an environment file (and the "ignore orphans" setting does work).
Steps To Reproduce
- Create orphans (take a compose file and rename any container)
- Create
.envwithCOMPOSE_REMOVE_ORPHANS='1' - Run
docker compose up -dordown
