Sorry i didn't know where exactly i should create this issue in. it's actually more related to Gitea than Flotilla. The current flotilla container image is 556MB so i decided to working on optimizing on . the result is my fork

the problem is wanted to enable build layer caching so building process will skip some already done sections and use cache from previous build, so i tried adding cache-from: type=gha and cache-to: type=gha,mode=max to docker/build-push-action but seems it doesn't work in Gitea. maybe it is supported but current Gitea settings are wrong, i don't know. even if it's not supported, i think we can combine Gitea Action Cache and docker local cache backend to acheived that.
for now i remove cache-from and cache-to from my fork(and PR it) so this can be decided later :)
