podman-diff(1)

NAME

podman-diff - Inspect changes on a container or image's filesystem

SYNOPSIS

podman diff [options] name

podman container diff [options] name

DESCRIPTION

Displays changes on a container or image's filesystem. The container or image will be compared to its parent layer

OPTIONS

--format

Alter the output into a different format. The only valid format for diff is json.

--latest, -l

Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods.

The latest option is not supported on the remote client.

EXAMPLE

    # podman diff redis:alpine
    C /usr
    C /usr/local
    C /usr/local/bin
    A /usr/local/bin/docker-entrypoint.sh

    # podman diff --format json redis:alpine
    {
      "changed": [
        "/usr",
        "/usr/local",
        "/usr/local/bin"
      ],
      "added": [
        "/usr/local/bin/docker-entrypoint.sh"
      ]
    }
