Miloslav Trmač 763606cdde Improve documentation of --authfile
- Don't claim that Windows uses XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, defer to the authoritative
  man page.
- Consistently document the (regrettable?) REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE environment
  variable.
- Consistently refer to "registry credentials file", not "authentication file".
- (Also deemphasizes (docker login), I'm not sure we want that.)

NAME

skopeo-logout - Logout of a container registry.

SYNOPSIS

skopeo logout [options] registry

DESCRIPTION

skopeo logout logs out of a specified registry server by deleting the cached credentials stored in the auth.json file. The path of the credentials file can be overridden by the user by setting the authfile flag. All the cached credentials can be removed by setting the all flag.

OPTIONS

See also skopeo(1) for options placed before the subcommand name.

--authfile=path

Path of the managed registry credentials file. On Linux, the default is ${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json. See containers-auth.json(5) for more details about the default on other platforms.

The default value of this option is read from the REGISTRY\_AUTH\_FILE environment variable.

--compat-auth-file=path

Instead of updating the default credentials file, update the one at path, and use a Docker-compatible format.

--all, -a

Remove the cached credentials for all registries in the auth file

--help, -h

Print usage statement

--tls-verify=bool

Require HTTPS and verify certificates when talking to the container registry or daemon. Default to registry.conf setting.

EXAMPLES

$ skopeo logout docker.io
Remove login credentials for docker.io
$ skopeo logout --authfile authdir/myauths.json docker.io
Remove login credentials for docker.io
$ skopeo logout --all
Remove login credentials for all registries
