From a9912b52d0827ba65a7125c20225268376b00f90 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Heon Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2020 14:26:07 -0400 Subject: Add a note on the APIs supported by `system service` This makes it clear that we target compatibility with a specific Docker version (v1.40), but do not reject other versions. It also adds a link to documentation on the Podman-specific API.
