Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard? The ability to push images to repositories without the need to create the sub-repo 000.dkr.ecr.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/dev as ( /dev/App1 )

the setup

• Create a repository on ECR /dev
• docker tag local/image:v1 000.dkr.ecr.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/dev/app1:v1
• docker push 000.dkr.ecr.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/dev/app1:v1

ERROR name unknown: The repository with name 'dev/app1' does not exist in the registry with id 'registry host'

Are you currently working around this issue?

Yes, by creating every repo, which i snot ideal

aws ecr create-repository --repository-name dev/app1 aws ecr create-repository --repository-name dev/app2 aws ecr create-repository --repository-name dev/app3

Additional context Docker registry work as intended, it will create /app1 by default It is not ideal to create 1000 repos for my 1000 apps

Probably already covered by #853

I agree that creating multiple repositories is unpractical and causes a management overhead, unless specifically desired due to auditing/security reasons.

As a workaround the image could be tagged with dev:app1_v1.0.0.

plus one on fixing this. Gitlab does this too. Azure and GCP do not.
