	For a private mirror it might make sense to sync only the newest versions of Alpine to save space, but if you ''do'' point an old Alpine version to your mirror they should still be able to install packages. We can achieve this by using nginx to serve the mirrored content and ~~use regex location matching to~~ redirect requests to a public mirror.		For a private mirror it might make sense to sync only the newest versions or some architectures of Alpine to save space, but if you ''do'' point an old Alpine version to your mirror they should still be able to install packages. We can achieve this by using nginx to serve the mirrored content and redirect all requests with 404 errors to a public mirror.

	Let's assume you chose to only mirror Alpine versions up from v3.13. If a client asks your mirror for v.3.10 it should redirect to another mirror.		Let's assume you chose to only mirror Alpine versions up from v3.13. If a client asks your mirror for v.3.10 it should redirect to another mirror.
