Daniel J Walsh cf51c7ed9f Allow podman push to push manifest lists
When doing a podman images, manifests lists look just like images, so
it is logical that users would assume that they can just podman push them
to a registry.  The problem is we throw out weird errors when this happens
and users need to somehow figure out this is a manifest list rather then
an image, and frankly the user will not understand the difference.

This PR will make podman push just do the right thing, by failing over and
attempting to push the manifest if it fails to push the image.

Fix up handling of manifest push

Protocol should bring back a digest string, which can either be
printed or stored in a file.

We should not reimplement the manifest push setup code in the tunnel
code but take advantage of the api path, to make sure remote and local
work the same way.

NAME

podman-manifest-push - Push a manifest list or image index to a registry

SYNOPSIS

podman manifest push [options] listnameorindexname transport:details

DESCRIPTION

Pushes a manifest list or image index to a registry.

RETURN VALUE

The list image's ID and the digest of the image's manifest.

OPTIONS

--all

Push the images mentioned in the manifest list or image index, in addition to the list or index itself. (Default true)

--authfile=path

Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json, which is set using podman login. If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which is set using docker login.

Note: You can also override the default path of the authentication file by setting the REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE environment variable. export REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE=path

--cert-dir=path

Use certificates at path (*.crt, *.cert, *.key) to connect to the registry. Default certificates directory is /etc/containers/certs.d. (Not available for remote commands)

--creds=creds

The [username[:password]] to use to authenticate with the registry if required. If one or both values are not supplied, a command line prompt will appear and the value can be entered. The password is entered without echo.

--digestfile=Digestfile

After copying the image, write the digest of the resulting image to the file.

--format, -f=format

Manifest list type (oci or v2s2) to use when pushing the list (default is oci).

--quiet, -q

When writing the manifest, suppress progress output

--rm

Delete the manifest list or image index from local storage if pushing succeeds.

--remove-signatures

Don't copy signatures when pushing images.

--sign-by=fingerprint

Sign the pushed images using the GPG key that matches the specified fingerprint.

--tls-verify

Require HTTPS and verify certificates when talking to container registries. (defaults to true)

EXAMPLE

podman manifest push mylist:v1.11 docker://registry.example.org/mylist:v1.11
