Story #9507

Updated by ipanova@redhat.com over 2 years ago

Mirrored signatures are not verified. Signature verification is offloaded to the client. 

 If `with-signature=True` ( TBD agree on naming)    was specified only those images that have signature with be mirrored. Rest of the images will be skipped. `Signature server location` needs to be specified ( it's the webserver location of signatures, for example https://registry.redhat.io/containers/sigstore). specified. 
 Otherwise it will be assumed that the signature is stored on the remote registry in a form of manifest or a separate object: 
 * If it is a separate object, signature API extensions should be available on the registry and `X-Registry-Supports-Signatures` header will identify that https://github.com/containers/image/blob/main/docs/signature-protocols.md#openshift-dockerdistribution-api-extension 
 * If it is stored in a form of a manifest then it most likely was signed with cosign    https://github.com/SigStore/cosign#signing-subjects. **we will not support this for now** 

 **Q:** does podman/skopeo support verification of cosign signature type? Only I see only atomic type for now https://github.com/containers/image/blob/main/docs/containers-signature.5.md#criticaltype 

 **Q:** how this will work with mirror=True?
