Hi

I'm trying to set-up our Jenkins master in a reproducible way using the 
Docker image here: https://github.com/jenkinsci/docker

One problem I am having is how to make ssh private keys (e.g. for polling 
git repos) available within the container in a secure manner. Ideally, I 
would like to be able set the private keys at runtime for the container, as 
a way to test the configuration in a safe environment before it is promoted 
to production.

Copying the keys at build time fails this second requirement (and may have 
security implications if it would make a user's private key visible to 
anybody with permission to run the container?).

Mounting the key location as volume with `docker run -v 
/path/to/keys:/var/jenkins_home/.ssh` does not work, as the mount point in 
the container inherits the uid/gid of the host directory, which does not 
match the uid/gid of the "jenkins" user within the container. There are 
solutions to this available, using gosu, but that seems to be strongly 
discouraged by the community.

What is the advised/best practise way of injecting ssh private keys into 
the Jenkins master container?

Thanks
