Description
On the page:https://hub.docker.com/_/postgres in how to extend this image section:
Note 2: This variable defines the superuser password in the PostgreSQL instance, as set by the initdb script during initial container startup. It has no effect on the PGPASSWORD environment variable that may be used by the psql client at runtime, as described at https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/libpq-envars.html. PGPASSWORD, if used, will be specified as a separate environment variable.
link to 14 postgres version is used. To my mind it would be better to use link to 'current' version https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-envars.html
