"RUN touch app.jar" doubles size of app.jar in image

Can you give more details for why this is necessary? Does it still apply for newer versions of Docker? I disabled this command and didn't notice an impact -- app.jar still has a modification time.
It used to be the case that the modification time was 0. Maybe that was a bug in docker and they fixed it. We used to have a bigger base image as well, so the extra layer wasn't as important.
