The default runner mapping sends Linux Arm platforms to ubuntu-24.04-arm and uses ubuntu-24.04 for other platforms. To change that mapping, see runner selection. sign: auto is also the default, which means the workflow signs attestation manifests when the image is pushed.\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
