How resumable pulls should work? #354

Closed lgalfaso closed 3 months ago

lgalfaso commented 2 years ago

The spec talks about Resumable Pull but does not specify how this should be done. The Docker spec states the following in the section Pulling a Layer

To allow for incremental downloads, Range requests should be supported, as well.

This is also later in the spec defined in more detail in the section Fetch Blob Part.
