How can I find a Docker image with a specific tag in Docker registry on the Docker command line?

Question

I try to locate one specific tag for a Docker image. How can I do it on the command line? I want to avoid downloading all the images and then removing the unneeded ones.

As far as I know, the CLI does not allow searching/listing tags in a repository.

But if you know which tag you want, you can pull that explicitly by adding a colon and the image name: docker pull ubuntu:saucy
