skaffold-built Docker images can't be pulled by kind cluster

[NimJay]

Describe the bug

• Running skaffold run produced the following error:

  - deployment/cartservice: container server is waiting to start: cartservice:47ae34d109f72d004f9d2818b5362a651cf5e8d5218151052853087f98698bc4 can't be pulled

  - deployment/cartservice failed. Error: container server is waiting to start: cartservice:47ae34d109f72d004f9d2818b5362a651cf5e8d5218151052853087f98698bc4 can't be pulled.

Pods

When I checked which Pods were running (via kubectl get pods), I saw:

Note that redis-cart-74d56b45ff-bngf6 is running successfully because its image is pulled directly from hub.docker.com/_/redis — not locally builts.

To Reproduce

1. Create a kind cluster: kind create cluster --name my-kind-cluster
2. Use skaffold version 2.0.1 and run skaffold dev.

Environment

> skaffold version
v2.0.1

> kind version
kind v0.17.0 go1.19.3 darwin/amd64

> git show
