Version pinning forces the build to retrieve a limited range of versions, or an exact particular version, regardless of what’s in the cache. This technique can also reduce failures due to unanticipated changes in required packages. See best practices for writing Dockerfiles.

Bad Practice

FROM alpine:3.7
RUN apk --no-cache add foo

Recommended

FROM alpine:3.7
RUN apk --no-cache add foo=~1.23
# or
RUN apk --no-cache add foo=1.2.3

Note: Pinning exact versions can cause future builds to suddenly fail if that version is no longer available. Use with caution.
