Doc Text:
Feature: added support for podman config credentials in oc oc commands that use registry config (oc login, oc image, etc.) now obtain credentials from podman config locations if a registry entry cannot be found in the default docker config location. The order can be changed via REGISTRY_AUTH_PREFERENCE env variable to docker (current default - deprecated) or podman

Description Wenjing Zheng 2021-07-15 03:45:16 UTC
Description of problem:
Since podman login is using ${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json as a default registry credential path,but oc commands which needs any registry credential are using ~/.docker/config.json. 

For example,command oc image append :
  -a, --registry-config='': Path to your registry credentials (defaults to ~/.docker/config.json) 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.9.0-0.nightly-2021-07-14-204159

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Check the help page of oc image append, the option of registry-config
2.
3.

Actual results:
It is using ~/.docker/config.json as default registry credential path.

Expected results:
It should be updated to use ${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json.

Filip check how hard would it be to support podman config path.

Replying to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1992474#c1:

> This does not have the same impact as using the additional registries as in (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1992468 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1982498).

> This is writing an auth config to just one location. By changing this location we would break backwards compatibility. For example scripts that login with oc registry and run docker on that new registry.

You're right we can't break backwards compatibility. We'll add support for new locations but the order will be still old.

retargeting to 4.10, too risky for closing in 4.9. Can be reconsidered for backporting once verified
