Usage patterns with podman, skopeo and buildah

# get list of available tags for a hosted container
# skopeo is your friend-O (tm)
skopeo list-tags docker:docker.io/gitlab/gitlab-ce

skopeo list-tags docker://docker.io/gitlab/gitlab-ce | grep -E '"16.8|latest'
      "16.8.0-ce.0",
      "16.8.1-ce.0",
      "latest",

# the above saves a trip to the docker hub and can be used to automate
# checking for changes in available versions.
