Does Docker need .ssh and .subversion linked to root?
If so, why?
I have mainly been running Docker without mounting .ssh and
.subversion, and not noticed any issues that seem to be caused
omitting them.
If they can be dropped, it would reduce the number of directories that
have to be exposed to Docker.

Well, yes, but personal secret files are not necessary for the live
version of Whimsy, so why should they be needed for the Docker
version?
Are they needed at all in Docker?

That's what happens currently, but I cannot work out why they are
needed (if indeed they are).

Those can be mounted as docker secrets.
https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/secrets/
While the docs mention this being for docker swarm, you don't need any
more instances of docker in your "swarm" than your existing desktop
one. Alternatively, this could use docker volumes to mount your
existing .ssh and .subversion directories from your user to the docker
image.
