 ## OPTIONS
 
+#### **--archive**, **-a**
+
+Archive mode (copy all uid/gid information).
+When set to true, files copied to a container will have changed ownership to the primary uid/gid of the container.
+When set to false, maintain uid/gid from archive sources instead of changing them to the primary uid/gid of the destination container.
+The default is *true*.

 ## ALTERNATIVES
 
 Podman has much stronger capabilities than just `podman cp` to achieve copy files between host and container.
