Provide instructions on authentication using Skopeo when publishing rock
Metadata
Current evaluation
Doc request to add a --dest-creds authentication section to the 'Publish a rock to a registry' how-to. Page (now docs/how-to/crafting/publish-a-rock.rst) still has no auth guidance; no maintainer reply in ~1 year.
Suggested action: needs triage
Reason: The request is technically valid and still unaddressed: I read docs/how-to/crafting/publish-a-rock.rst at HEAD and it contains only the bare `skopeo --insecure-policy copy oci-archive:... docker://...` command with no authentication guidance, and repo-wide greps for `dest-creds`, `creds`, and `docker login` return zero matches. However, the issue has 0 comments, no assignee, and no maintainer-applied labels (Type/Enhancement are just template fields), and the author said "I'll contribute a small addition for this as soon as I can" but never followed up — so it has never actually been assessed or prioritised by a maintainer. It is not close_stale because no maintainer ever asked for clarification, and age alone is not grounds to close.
