But I guess still the image build will happen layer per each task.. So better I am looking for some way, where I can Group all the ENV commands together with "&&" and similarly COP and RUN commands together wherever possible, so that in one layer all will be executed

Look also if there is a .dockerignore file and if here are files or folders specified that you wont to have rebuild. What ever doesnt change you can put it in the base image or before and between everything that can change. So it should not be rebuild.

Build that image as your base image and push it in a dockerregistry.
docker build -t mybaseimage:latest .
docker image tag mybaseimage:latest registry-domain/mypath/mybaseimage:latest

docker image push registry-domain/mypath/mybaseimage:latest


Now your mybaseimage image is in the registry and you can use it and rebuild your image with your code from here.
FROM mybaseimage

        COPY ./vstsagent/ .
        COPY ./start.sh .

Note:  registry-domain/mypath/ could be docker.io/myaccountname or your private registry if you have one.

> **Comments:**
> **username_0**: But I guess still the image build will happen layer per each task.. So better I am looking for some way, where I can Group all the ENV commands together with "&&" and similarly COP and RUN commands together wherever possible, so that in one layer all will be executed  
> **username_1**: Look also if there is a .dockerignore file and if here are files or folders specified that you wont to have rebuild. What ever doesnt change you can put it in the base image or before and between everything that can change. So it should not be rebuild.
