Describe the Enhancement

The docker build of METplus does not use the latest tag. (#2305 (comment)). This means that the default docker pull that one does to try out the container doesn't work, and instead a specific version needs to be pulled, like 5.1-latest. This is all well and good, but it doesn't appear to be documented anywhere, such as on the Docker Hub README, or in the installation documentation.

Time Estimate

Approximately 0.5 days of work.

Sub-Issues
