Description

https://github.com/sameersbn/docker-gitlab/blob/master/docs/container_registry.md is not realy clear to me.

Sometimes registry-auth.crt/key is used, then there is registry.crt/key.
Then there is REGISTRY_AUTH_TOKEN_ROOTCERTBUNDLE=/certs/registry.crt and on another point there is REGISTRY_AUTH_TOKEN_ROOTCERTBUNDLE=/certs/registry-auth.crt.

I'm confused and do not really understand how to setup that stuff. Furthermore, I didn't understand the difference between GITLAB_REGISTRY_CERT_PATH and SSL_REGISTRY_CERT_PATH.

It would be nice to have this clarified in the docs.

Research direction

Start with docs/container_registry.md and compare every use of registry-auth.crt, registry.crt, REGISTRY_AUTH_TOKEN_ROOTCERTBUNDLE, GITLAB_REGISTRY_CERT_PATH, and SSL_REGISTRY_CERT_PATH. Clarify the certificate naming and path differences in the setup instructions, and consider the documentation complete when the examples are consistent and the two certificate-path variables are explained.
