| _from_uid_ + 4 | _container_uid_ + 4 |
+The current user ID is mapped to UID=0 in the rootless user namespace.
+Every additional range is added sequentially afterward:

Even if a user does not have any subordinate UIDs in _/etc/subuid_,
**--uidmap** could still be used to map the normal UID of the user to a
container UID by running `podman create --uidmap $container_uid:0:1 --user $container_uid ...`.
