+## NAME
+podman\-pull - Pull an image from a registry
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+**podman pull** [*options*] *source* [*source*...]
+
+**podman image pull** [*options*] *source* [*source*...]
+
+**podman pull** [*options*] [*transport*]*name*[:*tag*|@*digest*]
+
+**podman image pull** [*options*] [*transport*]*name*[:*tag*|@*digest*]
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+podman pull copies an image from a registry onto the local machine. The command can pull one or more images. If the image reference in the command line argument does not contain a registry, it is referred to as a`short-name` reference. If the image is a 'short-name' reference, Podman will prompt the user for the specific container registry to pull the image from, if an alias for the short-name has not been specified in the `short-name-aliases.conf`. If an image tag is not specified, **podman pull** defaults to the image with the **latest** tag (if it exists) and pulls it. After the image is pulled, podman will print the full image ID. **podman pull** can also pull images using a digest **podman pull** *image*@*digest* and can also be used to pull images from archives and local storage using different transports.
+*IMPORTANT: Images are stored in local image storage.*
+
+## SOURCE
+SOURCE is the location from which the container image is pulled from. It supports all transports from **[containers-transports(5)](https://github.com/containers/image/blob/main/docs/containers-transports.5.md)**. If no transport is specified, the input is subject to short-name resolution and the `docker` (i.e., container registry) transport is used. For remote clients, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines, `docker` is the only supported transport.
+
+```
+# Pull from a container registry
+$ podman pull quay.io/username/myimage
+
+# Pull from a container registry with short-name resolution
+$ podman pull fedora
+
+# Pull from a container registry via the docker transport
+$ podman pull docker://quay.io/username/myimage
+
+# Pull from a local directory
+$ podman pull dir:/tmp/myimage
+
+# Pull from a tarball in the docker-archive format
+$ podman pull docker-archive:/tmp/myimage
+
+# Pull from a local docker daemon
+$ sudo podman pull docker-daemon:docker.io/library/myimage:33
+
+# Pull from a tarball in the OCI-archive format
+$ podman pull oci-archive:/tmp/myimage
+```
+
+## OPTIONS
+#### **--all-tags**, **-a**
+
+All tagged images in the repository will be pulled.
+
+*IMPORTANT: When using the all-tags flag, Podman will not iterate over the search registries in the **[containers-registries.conf(5)](https://github.com/containers/image/blob/main/docs/containers-registries.conf.5.md)** but will always use docker.io for unqualified image names.*
+
+#### **--arch**=*ARCH*
+Override the architecture, defaults to hosts, of the image to be pulled. For example, `arm`.
+
+#### **--authfile**=*path*
+
+Path of the authentication file. If the authorization state is not found there, `$HOME/.docker/config.json` is checked, which is set using `docker login`.
+
+Default is `${XDG\_RUNTIME\_DIR}/containers/auth.json`, which is set using `podman login`.
+
+*IMPORTANT: The default path of the authentication file can be overwritten by setting the `REGISTRY\_AUTH\_FILE` environment variable. `export REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE=path`*
+
+#### **--cert-dir**=*path*
+
+Use certificates at *path* (\*.crt, \*.cert, \*.key) to connect to the registry. (Default: /etc/containers/certs.d)
+Please refer to **[containers-certs.d(5)](https://github.com/containers/image/blob/main/docs/containers-certs.d.5.md)** for details. (This option is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines)
+
+#### **--creds**=*[username[:password]]*
+
+The [username[:password]] to use to authenticate with the registry if required.
+If one or both values are not supplied, a command line prompt will appear and the
+value can be entered. The password is entered without echo.
+
+#### **--disable-content-trust**
+
+This is a Docker specific option to disable image verification to a Docker
+registry and is not supported by Podman. This flag is a NOOP and provided
+solely for scripting compatibility.
+
+#### **--help**, **-h**
+
+Print the usage statement.
+
+#### **--os**=*OS*
+
+Override the OS, defaults to hosts, of the image to be pulled. For example, `windows`.
+
+@@option platform
+
+#### **--quiet**, **-q**
+
+Suppress output information when pulling images
+
+#### **--tls-verify**
+
+Require HTTPS and verify certificates when contacting registries (default: true). If explicitly set to true,
+then TLS verification will be used. If set to false, then TLS verification will not be used. If not specified,
+TLS verification will be used unless the target registry is listed as an insecure registry in registries.conf.
+
+#### **--variant**=*VARIANT*
+
+Use _VARIANT_ instead of the default architecture variant of the container image. Some images can use multiple variants of the arm architectures, such as arm/v5 and arm/v7.
+
+## FILES
+
+**short-name-aliases.conf** (`/var/cache/containers/short-name-aliases.conf`, `$HOME/.cache/containers/short-name-aliases.conf`)
+
+When users specify images that do not include the container registry where the
+image is stored, this is called a short name. The use of unqualified-search registries entails an ambiguity as it is unclear from which registry a given image, referenced by a short name, may be pulled from.
+
+Using short names is subject to the risk of hitting squatted registry namespaces. If the unqualified-search registries are set to ["public-registry.com", "my-private-registry.com"] an attacker may take over a namespace of `public-registry.com` such that an image may be pulled from `public-registry.com` instead of the intended source `my-private-registry.com`.
+
+While it is highly recommended to always use fully-qualified image references, existing deployments using short names may not be easily changed. To circumvent the aforementioned ambiguity, so called short-name aliases can be configured that point to a fully-qualified image reference. Distributions often ship a default shortnames.conf expansion file in /etc/containers/registries.conf.d/ directory. Administrators can use this directory to add their own local short-name expansion files.
+
+When pulling an image, if the user does not specify the complete registry, container engines attempt to expand the short-name into a full name. If the command is executed with a tty, the user will be prompted to select a registry from the
+default list unqualified registries defined in registries.conf. The user's selection is then stored in a cache file to be used in all future short-name expansions. Rootful short-names are stored in /var/cache/containers/short-name-aliases.conf. Rootless short-names are stored in the $HOME/.cache/containers/short-name-aliases.conf file.
+
+For more information on short-names, see `containers-registries.conf(5)`
+
+**registries.conf** (`/etc/containers/registries.conf`)
+
+registries.conf is the configuration file which specifies which container registries should be consulted when completing image names which do not include a registry or domain portion.
+
+NOTE: Use the environment variable `TMPDIR` to change the temporary storage location of downloaded container images. Podman defaults to use `/var/tmp`.
+
+
