Research direction

Start with the Dockerfile and inspect how ARG WATCHMAN_VERSION is declared and how the image is built. Verify the container can run watchman watch-del-all; done means the version argument is used and the watchman command is available without breaking React Native Android builds.

Description

enhancement

In the Dockerfile there is a line ARG WATCHMAN_VERSION=4.9.0 which is never used.

In the same context, when for example watchman watch-del-all is executed in the container it results in watchman: command not found. But I can still build react-native apps using this docker image.
