Description

On 23.04.202, Ubuntu 20.04 was released: [1]. What is the ETA for the Ubuntu 20.04 based RBE image?

The reason I'm asking is that for Gerrit Code Review project we have intergration tests based on recent Git package release (to test Gerrit with Git wire protocol v2). And Git version is outdated in 16.04 and 18.04 Ubuntu releases.

Yes, I know that we could easily build our own custom RBE docker image and publish it somewhere. E.g. on https://gcr.io or on https://hub.docker.com registries.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. First inspect the repository's current RBE image definitions and Ubuntu base-image support, then determine whether an Ubuntu 20.04 image is still needed for the described Git integration tests. Done means the supported image is available and its build or usage path is documented.
