Description

the docker-compose is fixed at 1.24.1. This would be nice to let user set the version. This allows to deal with new docker-compose syntaxes

Research direction

Start in DockerComposeContainer.java around line 611, where the docker-compose image version is fixed at 1.24.1. Trace how that image is selected and identify the existing configuration entry point. Done means users can set the docker-compose version so newer compose syntaxes can be used.
