+## Authentication to private registries
+
+Authentication info when building, pushing, or pulling images, or when using
+Swarm, is provided by a `RegistryAuthSupplier` class.
+
+Docker-client is packaged with a few implementations of this interface
+
+- `auth.ConfigFileRegistryAuthSupplier`, which reads authentication info from
+  the the config files used by docker-cli (`~/.dockercfg` or
+  `~/.docker/config.json`)
+- `auth.NoOpRegistryAuthSupplier` which uses a fixed instance of the
+  `RegistryAuth` and `RegistryConfigs` POJOs
+- `auth.gcr.ContainerRegistryAuthSupplier`, which programmatically fetches
+  access tokens for use with Google Container Registry based on given Gogole
+  Cloud account credentials
+- `auth.MultiRegistryAuthSupplier`, which can be used to combine multiple other
+  implementations
+
+Users are encouraged to implement the `RegistryAuthSupplier` interface
+themselves to support custom authentication logic, and we would be happy to
+review and accept pull requests to add support in the library for additional
+schemes.
+
+Since version 8.7.0, docker-client will automatically enable the
+`ConfigFileRegistryAuthSupplier` class in `DefaultDockerClient` as long as none
+of the other authentication-related methods in the
+`DefaultDockerClient.Builder` class (`dockerAuth(boolean)`,
+`registryAuth(RegistryAuth)`, or `registryAuthSupplier(RegistryAuthSupplier)`)
+are used.
