This repository is a monorepo combining several core Go libraries and utilities from the containers project.

It brings together:

• common → Shared Go code and configuration used across multiple containers projects.
• storage → A Go library for managing container images, layers, and containers.
• image → A Go library for interacting with container images and registries.

These components are used by major container tools such as Podman, Buildah, CRI-O, and Skopeo.

Each subproject has its own README.md file with more instructions.

We welcome contributions!
