+## NAME
+podman push - Push an image from local storage to elsewhere
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+**podman** **push** [*options* [...]] **imageID** [**destination**]
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+Pushes an image from local storage to a specified destination.
+Push is mainly used to push images to registries, however **podman push**
+can be used to save images to tarballs and directories using the following
+transports: **dir:**, **docker-archive:**, **docker-daemon:**, **oci-archive:**, and **ostree:**.
+
+## imageID
+Image stored in local container/storage
+
+## DESTINATION
+
+ The DESTINATION is a location to store container images
+ The Image "DESTINATION" uses a "transport":"details" format.
+ If a transport is not given, podman push will attempt to push
+ to a registry.
+
+ Multiple transports are supported:
+
+  **dir:**_path_
+  An existing local directory _path_ storing the manifest, layer tarballs and signatures as individual files. This is a non-standardized format, primarily useful for debugging or noninvasive container inspection.
+
+  **docker://**_docker-reference_
+  An image in a registry implementing the "Docker Registry HTTP API V2". By default, uses the authorization state in `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/containers/auth.json`, which is set using `(podman login)`. If the authorization state is not found there, `$HOME/.docker/config.json` is checked, which is set using `(docker login)`.
+
+  **docker-archive:**_path_[**:**_docker-reference_]
+  An image is stored in the `docker save` formatted file.  _docker-reference_ is only used when creating such a file, and it must not contain a digest.
+
+  **docker-daemon:**_docker-reference_
+  An image _docker-reference_ stored in the docker daemon internal storage.  _docker-reference_ must contain either a tag or a digest.  Alternatively, when reading images, the format can also be docker-daemon:algo:digest (an image ID).
+
+  **oci-archive:**_path_**:**_tag_
+  An image _tag_ in a directory compliant with "Open Container Image Layout Specification" at _path_.
+
+  **ostree:**_image_[**@**_/absolute/repo/path_]
+  An image in local OSTree repository.  _/absolute/repo/path_ defaults to _/ostree/repo_.
+
+## OPTIONS
+
+**--authfile**
+
+Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_RUNTIME\_DIR}/containers/auth.json, which is set using `podman login`.
+If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which is set using `docker login`.
+
+**--creds="CREDENTIALS"**
+
+Credentials (USERNAME:PASSWORD) to use for authenticating to a registry
+
+**cert-dir="PATHNAME"**
+
+Pathname of a directory containing TLS certificates and keys
+
+**--compress**
+
+Compress tarball image layers when pushing to a directory using the 'dir' transport. (default is same compression type, compressed or uncompressed, as source)
+Note: This flag can only be set when using the **dir** transport
+
+**--format, -f**
+
+Manifest Type (oci, v2s1, or v2s2) to use when pushing an image to a directory using the 'dir:' transport (default is manifest type of source)
+Note: This flag can only be set when using the **dir** transport
+
+**--quiet, -q**
+
+When writing the output image, suppress progress output
+
+**--remove-signatures**
+
+Discard any pre-existing signatures in the image
+
+**--signature-policy="PATHNAME"**
+
+Pathname of a signature policy file to use.  It is not recommended that this
+option be used, as the default behavior of using the system-wide default policy
+(frequently */etc/containers/policy.json*) is most often preferred
+
+**--sign-by="KEY"**
+
+Add a signature at the destination using the specified key
+
+**--tls-verify**
+
+Require HTTPS and verify certificates when contacting registries (default: true)
+
+## EXAMPLE
+
+This example extracts the imageID image to a local directory in docker format.
+
+ `# podman push imageID dir:/path/to/image`
+
+This example extracts the imageID image to a local directory in oci format.
+
+ `# podman push imageID oci-archive:/path/to/layout:image:tag`
+
+This example extracts the imageID image to a container registry named registry.example.com
+
+ `# podman push imageID docker://registry.example.com/repository:tag`
+
+This example extracts the imageID image and puts into the local docker container store
+
+ `# podman push imageID docker-daemon:image:tag`
+
+This example pushes the alpine image to umohnani/alpine on dockerhub and reads the creds from
+the path given to --authfile
+
+```
+# podman push --authfile temp-auths/myauths.json alpine docker://docker.io/umohnani/alpine
