Do docker-pussh or docker-pushmi-pullyu verify container image signatures and attestations?

From "About Docker Content Trust (DCT)" https://docs.docker.com/engine/security/trust/ :

  > Image consumers can enable DCT to ensure that images they use were signed. If a consumer enables DCT, they can only pull, run, or build with trusted images. 

  export DOCKER_CONTENT_TRUST=1

docker-pushmi-pullyu does a vanilla `docker pull`[1] on the remote side, so you should be able to set `DOCKER_CONTENT_TRUST` in the remote environment to get whatever behavior you want (though admittedly I have not tested this).

If there's desire for an option to specify `--disable-content-trust` during push and/or pull I'll happily add it. Please file an issue if this is something you want.

Should it be set in both the local and remote envs?

What does it do if there's no signature?

Do images built and signed with podman and cosign work with docker; are the artifact signatures portable across container CLIs docker, nerdctl, and podman?

From nerdctl/docs/cosign.md "Container Image Sign and Verify with cosign tool" https://github.com/containerd/nerdctl/blob/main/docs/cosign.... ; handily answering my own question aloud:

Sign the container image while pushing, verify the signature on fetch/pull:

  # Sign the image with Keyless mode
  $ nerdctl push --sign=cosign devopps/hello-world
  
  # Sign the image and store the signature in the registry
  $ nerdctl push --sign=cosign --cosign-key cosign.key devopps/hello-world

  # Verify the image with Keyless mode
  $ nerdctl pull --verify=cosign --certificate-identity=name@example.com --certificate-oidc-issuer=https://accounts.example.com devopps/hello-world


  # You can not verify the image if it is not signed
  $ nerdctl pull --verify=cosign --cosign-key cosign.pub devopps/hello-world-bad
