done directly by buildkit. The git reference will be based on the [event that triggered your workflow](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/events-that-trigger-workflows)
and will result in the following context: `https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>.git#<ref>`.

Beginning with BuildKit version `v0.9.0` ([Buildx](https://github.com/docker/buildx) `v0.7.0`) you can provide a subdirectory to the [Git context](#git-context) by using the magic variable `{{defaultContext}}`:

```yaml
-
name: Build and push
id: docker_build
uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
with:
context: {{defaultContext}}:docker
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
```

Be careful because **any file mutation in the steps that precede the build step will be ignored, including processing of the `.dockerignore` file** since
the context is based on the git reference. However, you can use the [Path context](#path-context) using the
[`context` input](#inputs) alongside the [`actions/checkout`](https://github.com/actions/checkout/) action to remove
