#### Push

Pushing an artifact typically works in the opposite order as a pull: the blobs making up the artifact are uploaded first,
and the manifest last. Strictly speaking, content can be uploaded to the registry in any order, but a registry MAY reject
a manifest if it references blobs that are not yet uploaded, resulting in a `BLOB_UNKNOWN` error <sup>[code-1](#error-codes)</sup>.

A registry MAY reject a manifest of any type uploaded to the manifest endpoint if it references blobs that do not exist in the registry. Where a manifest is rejected for this reason, it must result in one or more `MANIFEST_BLOB_UNKNOWN` errors <sup>[code-1](#error-codes)</sup>.
