+% containers-certs.d 5 Directory for storing custom container-registry TLS configurations
+
+# NAME
+containers-certs.d - Directory for storing custom container-registry TLS configurations
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+A custom TLS configuration for a container registry can be configured by creating a directory under `$HOME/.config/containers/certs.d` or `/etc/containers/certs.d`.
+The name of the directory must correspond to the `host:port` of the registry (e.g., `my-registry.com:5000`).
+
+## Directory Structure
+A certs directory can contain one or more files with the following extensions:
+
+* `*.crt` files with this extensions will be interpreted as CA certificates
+* `*.cert` files with this extensions will be interpreted as client certificates
+* `*.key` files with this extensions will be interpreted as client keys
+
+Note that the client certificate-key pair will be selected by the file name (e.g., `client.{cert,key}`).
+An exemplary setup for a registry running at `my-registry.com:5000` may look as follows:
+```
+/etc/containers/certs.d/ <- Certificate directory
+└── my-registry.com:5000 <- Hostname:port
+ ├── client.cert <- Client certificate
+ ├── client.key <- Client key
+ └── ca.crt <- Certificate authority that signed the registry certificate
+```
