Docker tags for pre-release Julia versions

Does anyone know why the official Julia Docker images have an -rc tag for the pre-release (currently eg 1.12-rc)?

This is a bit cumbersome as when 1.12 is released, I will have to manually remove the -rc from various files.

I wanted to ask here before raising an issue about this with Docker.

as I see: the docker -rc tag functions as a generic alias for the current release‑candidate image. ( -beta1 , -beta2, -beta3, -beta4 … ,-rc1 ,-rc2 ,-rc3, … )
