+## NAME
+podman\-container\-diff - Inspect changes on a container's filesystem
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+**podman container diff** [*options*] *container* [*container*]
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+Displays changes on a container's filesystem. The container will be compared to its parent layer or the second argument when given.
+
+The output is prefixed with the following symbols:
+
+| Symbol | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| A | A file or directory was added. |
+| D | A file or directory was deleted. |
+| C | A file or directory was changed. |
+
+## OPTIONS
+
+#### **--format**
+
+Alter the output into a different format. The only valid format for **podman container 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. (This option is not available with the remote Podman client)
+
+## EXAMPLE
+
+```
+# podman container diff container1
+C /usr
+C /usr/local
+C /usr/local/bin
+A /usr/local/bin/docker-entrypoint.sh
+```
+
+```
+$ podman container diff --format json container1 container2
+{
+ "added": [
+ "/test"
+ ]
+}
+```
