[BUG] docker compose up -d waits even without --wait

[rltas]

Description

After adding healtheck and depends_on to our GitLab resp. Zoekt services, docker compose up -d doesn't return until GitLab is healthy, despite not having specified --wait.
Am I misreading the docs or should it return immediately in this case? GitLab needs quite a while to warm up, so I just may have missed that behaviour in other cases.

Steps To Reproduce

With services configured like this:

services:
  gitlab:
    image: gitlab/gitlab-ee:18.6.1-ee.0
    healthcheck:
      test: python3 -c 'import requests; r=requests.get("http://localhost/-/readiness"); print(r.json()["status"]);' 2>/dev/null | grep -q -x 'ok'
      interval: 10s
      retries: 12
      start_period: 60s

  zoekt-index:
    image: registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/build/cng/gitlab-zoekt:v18.6.1
    environment:
      GITLAB_ZOEKT_MODE: indexer
    depends_on:
      gitlab:
        condition: service_healthy

  zoekt-web:
    image: registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/build/cng/gitlab-zoekt:v18.6.1
    environment:
      GITLAB_ZOEKT_MODE: webserver
    depends_on:
      gitlab:
        condition: service_healthy
