More the latter. I'm wondering if developers will soon need to have a basic competency in Docker (and I say Docker rather than "Containers", because of it's popularity and command line tools).
Kinda like Git - most programmers just need to know the basics to do their job: add, commit, push, pull - so long as there is somebody on the team that knows how to get them out of trouble. Maybe x years from now Docker will be the same, all devs will be expected to know the basics: build, run, stop, docker-compose-up.
It's tough to predict the future, but I think that it's worthwhile to get familiar with it just in case :)
Do you mean that docker can replace git, or 'will docker become a necessity for development as git is today'?

One might even say it's worthwhile to git familiar with it :)
