   Description     : crontab-compatible job runner, optimized for 
containers

  Supercronic is a crontab-compatible job runner, designed specifically
  to run in containers.
  .
  Unlike traditional cron, supercronic logs to stdout/stderr, supports
  JSON logging, signals the entire process group on job termination,
  exposes a Prometheus metrics endpoint, hot-reloads crontab files via
  inotify, and handles PID 1 zombie reaping.

supercronic is good solution to run cronjobs in containers, currently
the recommended installation path is to use wget when building a
container, which is suboptimal.

I plan to maintain this package under the umbrella of the Debian Go
Packaging Team.
