Summary of Changes

Hello @scrat98, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses issue #4231 by enhancing the jib-cli/README.md file. It provides users with clear guidance on how to configure Java Virtual Machine (JVM) options for the Jib CLI, which is a Java-based application. This enhancement clarifies the process for passing runtime settings, such as proxy configurations, ensuring better usability and troubleshooting for advanced scenarios.

Highlights

  • Jib CLI JVM Options Documentation: A new section has been added to the jib-cli/README.md to document how to configure JVM options for the Jib CLI.
  • Environment Variables for JVM Options: The documentation clarifies that JIB_OPTS or JAVA_OPTS environment variables can be used to pass JVM options to the Jib CLI process.
  • Proxy Configuration Example: The new section highlights that configuring proxies is a common use case for these JVM options, linking to the existing proxy configuration FAQ.

Code Review

This pull request adds documentation for configuring JVM options for the Jib CLI. The change is good, but I've suggested an improvement to make the documentation clearer for CLI users by avoiding a link to a potentially confusing FAQ section and instead linking to the canonical Java documentation.
