Describe The Solution. Why is it needed?
A local Package Index allows Chocolatey CLI to perform package searches locally, without the need to reach out to the destination source / repository. Local searches have the obvious benefit of reduced bandwidth and increased response time, resulting in increased responsiveness in Chocolatey CLI.
Linux package managers such as dnf , yum , apt , pacman, use a local package index.
For clarity, NuGet does not use a local package index, querying the remote server each time.
User Story
No response
Additional Context
Package Indexes will support NuGet v3 repository feeds only. As the current CCR only supported NuGet v2, we need to wait until it supports v3.
