Description
Currently, dotrun assumes the UID of the user running the command on the host to be the default one (1000). When that's not the case, this causes an ownership mismatch that disallows the default ubuntu user to do anything in the folder that is copied over to the Docker container:

Ideally, to fix this problem, dotrun should allow the user to pass a custom UID instead of the default one (1000).
