Most CI systems used GET requests to fetch image manifests, in order to see what the registry's most recent image is. These requests are counted towards the limits in Docker's new rules.

Systems which built on top of the GGCR library[0] are switching to using HEAD requests instead[1]. These don't fetch the entire manifest, instead relying on just headers to detect that a change has occurred.
