Description

Hi Guys,

I recently tried to install gitlab with a container registry using according to docs/container_registry.md. Unfortunately deleting tags and manifests is not possible, the registry shows a bunch of provided digest did not match uploaded content in the logs.

After researching I found out that Gitlab dropped support for external registries at all to support such features as well: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/update/deprecations.html?removal_milestone=16.0#use-of-third-party-container-registries-is-deprecated

It'd great when this project would support Gitlab's own registry as well.

Regards

Marco

Research direction

Start with docs/container_registry.md and the linked GitLab deprecation note to understand the current external-registry setup and the requested GitLab registry support. Trace the documented configuration and determine the required scope for making registry tag and manifest deletion work with GitLab's own registry; done means the supported setup is documented and those operations no longer fail.
