Sebastiaan van Stijn 267e231de0 Fix various links that were generating URLs with .md (#10548)
* Fix incorrect links in compose section

there's a bug causing wrapped links to not work, and replacing
some links to point to the .md file, so that IDE's can check
if the anchors are valid. Also replaced some links to point
to their new location.

* Fix various broken links

There's a bug in the "jekyll-relative-links" plugin that causes wrapped links to not work.
Also replacing some links to point to the .md file, so that IDE's can check if the anchors
are valid. Finally, replaced some links to point to their new locations, so that users don't
get redirected..

## What it is
The Registry is a stateless, highly scalable server side application that stores
and lets you distribute Docker images. The Registry is open-source, under the
permissive [Apache license](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_License).
## Why use it
You should use the Registry if you want to:
* tightly control where your images are being stored
* fully own your images distribution pipeline
* integrate image storage and distribution tightly into your in-house development workflow
## Alternatives
Users looking for a zero maintenance, ready-to-go solution are encouraged to
head-over to the [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com), which provides a
free-to-use, hosted Registry, plus additional features (organization accounts,
automated builds, and more).
Users looking for a commercially supported version of the Registry should look
into [Docker Trusted Registry](/ee/dtr/).
## Requirements
The Registry is compatible with Docker engine **version 1.6.0 or higher**.
## Basic commands
Start your registry
docker run -d -p 5000:5000 --name registry registry:2
Pull (or build) some image from the hub
docker pull ubuntu
Tag the image so that it points to your registry
docker image tag ubuntu localhost:5000/myfirstimage
Push it
docker push localhost:5000/myfirstimage
Pull it back
docker pull localhost:5000/myfirstimage
Now stop your registry and remove all data
docker container stop registry && docker container rm -v registry
## Next
You should now read the [detailed introduction about the registry](introduction.md),
or jump directly to [deployment instructions](deploying.md).
