      Using a bind mount for devcontainers on macos has two issues:

      1. Slow performance when compared to using a named volume
      2. Issues with bazel and resolving globs that match against "build" directories

      We should recommend users use the devcontainer extension's "clone repo in a named volume" functionality instead.
