Init containers are containers which run before the rest of the pod starts. There are two types of init containers: "always", which always run before the pod is started, and "once", which only run the first time the pod starts and are subsequently removed. They can be added using the `podman create` command's `--init-ctr` option. +- Support for init containers has also been added to `podman play kube` and `podman generate kube` - init containers contained in Kubernetes YAML will be created as Podman init containers, and YAML generated by Podman will include any init containers created. +- The `podman play kube` command now supports building images. If the `--build` option is given and a directory with the name of the specified image exists in the current working directory and contains a valid Containerfile or Dockerfile, the image will be built and used for the container. +- The `podman play kube` command now supports a new option, `--teardown`, which removes any pods and containers created by the given Kubernetes YAML. +- The `podman generate kube` command now generates annotations for SELinux mount options on volume (`:z` and `:Z`) that are respected by the `podman play kube` command. +- A new command has been added, `podman pod logs`, to return logs for all containers in a pod at the same time. +- Two new commands have been added, `podman volume export` (to export a volume to a tar file) and `podman volume import`) (to populate a volume from a given tar file). +- The `podman auto-update` command now supports simple rollbacks. If a container fails to start after an automatic update, it will be rolled back to the previous image and restarted again. +- Pods now share their user namespace by default, and the `podman pod create` command now supports the `--userns` option. This allows rootless pods to be created with the `--userns=keep-id` option. +- The `podman pod ps` command now supports a new filter with its `--filter` option, `until`, which returns pods created before a given timestamp. +- The `podman image scp` command has been added. This command allows images to be transferred between different hosts. +- The `podman stats` command supports a new option, `--interval`, to specify the amount of time before the information is refreshed. +- The `podman inspect` command now includes ports exposed (but not published) by containers (e.g. ports from `--expose` when `--publish-all` is not specified). +- The `podman inspect` command now has a new boolean value, `Checkpointed`, which indicates that a container was stopped as a result of a `podman container checkpoint` operation. +- Volumes created by `podman volume create` now support setting quotas when run atop XFS. The `size` and `inode` options allow the maximum size and maximum number of inodes consumed by a volume to be limited. +- The `podman info` command now outputs information on what log drivers, network drivers, and volume plugins are available for use ([#11265](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11265)). +- The `podman info` command now outputs the current log driver in use, and the variant and codename of the distribution in use. +- The parameters of the VM created by `podman machine init` (amount of disk space, memory, CPUs) can now be set in `containers.conf`. +- The `podman machine ls` command now shows additional information (CPUs, memory, disk size) about VMs managed by `podman machine`. +- The `podman ps` command now includes healthcheck status in container state for containers that have healthchecks ([#11527](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11527)). + +### Changes +- The `podman build` command has a new alias, `podman buildx`, to improve compatibility with Docker. We have already added support for many `docker buildx` flags to `podman build` and aim to continue to do so. +- Cases where Podman is run without a user session or a writable temporary files directory will now produce better error messages. +- The default log driver has been changed from `file` to `journald`. The `file` driver did not properly support log rotation, so this should lead to a better experience. If journald is not available on the system, Podman will automatically revert to the `file`. +- Podman no longer depends on `ip` for removing networks ([#11403](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11403)). +- The deprecated `--macvlan` flag to `podman network create` now warns when it is used. It will be removed entirely in the Podman 4.0 release. +- The `podman machine start` command now prints a message when the VM is successfully started. +- The `podman stats` command can now be used on containers that are paused. +- The `podman unshare` command will now return the exit code of the command that was run in the user namespace (assuming the command was successfully run). +- Successful healthchecks will no longer add a `healthy` line to the system log to reduce log spam. +- As a temporary workaround for a lack of shortname prompts in the Podman remote client, VMs created by `podman machine` now default to only using the `docker.io` registry. + +### Bugfixes +- Fixed a bug where whitespace in the definition of sysctls (particularly default sysctls specified in `containers.conf`) would cause them to be parsed incorrectly. +- Fixed a bug where the Windows remote client improperly validated volume paths ([#10900](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/10900)). +- Fixed a bug where the first line of logs from a container run with the `journald` log driver could be skipped. +- Fixed a bug where images created by `podman commit` did not include ports exposed by the container. +- Fixed a bug where the `podman auto-update` command would ignore the `io.containers.autoupdate.authfile` label when pulling images ([#11171](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11171)). +- Fixed a bug where the `--workdir` option to `podman create` and `podman run` could not be set to a directory where a volume was mounted ([#11352](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11352)). +- Fixed a bug where systemd socket-activation did not properly work with systemd-managed Podman containers ([#10443](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/10443)). +- Fixed a bug where environment variable secrets added to a container were not available to exec sessions launched in the container. +-

option to `podman create` and `podman run` were case-sensitive ([#11387](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11387)). +- Fixed a bug where the `podman manifest rm` command would also remove images referenced by the manifest, not just the manifest itself ([#11344](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11344)). +- Fixed a bug where the Podman remote client on OS X would not function properly if the `TMPDIR` environment variable was not set ([#11418](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11418)). +- Fixed a bug where the `/etc/hosts` file was not guaranteed to contain an entry for `localhost` (this is still not guaranteed if `--net=host` is used; such containers will exactly match the host's `/etc/hosts`) ([#11411](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11411)). +- Fixed a bug where the `podman machine start` command could print warnings about unsupported CPU features ([#11421](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11421)). +- Fixed a bug where the `podman info` command could segfault when accessing cgroup information. +- Fixed a bug where the `podman logs -f` command could hang when a container exited

([#11438](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11438)). +- Fixed a bug where the remote Podman client's `podman build` command would fail to build containers if the UID and GID on the client were higher than 65536 ([#11474](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11474)). +- Fixed a bug where the remote Podman client's `podman build` command would fail to build containers if the context directory was a symlink ([#11732](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11732)). +- Fixed a bug where the `--network` flag to `podman play kube` was not properly parsed when a non-bridge network configuration was specified. +- Fixed a bug where the `podman inspect` command could error when the container being inspected was removed as it was being inspected ([#11392](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11392)). +- Fixed a bug where the `podman play kube` command ignored the default pod infra image specified in `containers.conf`. +- Fixed a bug where the `--format` option to `podman inspect` was nonfunctional under some circumstances ([#8785](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/8785)). +- Fixed a bug where the remote Podman client's `podman run` and `podman exec` commands could skip a byte of output every 8192 bytes ([#11496](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11496)). +- Fixed a bug where the `podman stats` command would print nonsensical results if the container restarted while it was running ([#11469](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11469)). +- Fixed a bug where the remote Podman client would error when STDOUT was redirected on a Windows client ([#11444](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11444)). +- Fixed a bug where the `podman run` command could return 0 when the application in the

could not be restarted automatically. +- Fixed a bug where the `--cgroups=split` option to `podman create` and `podman run` was silently discarded if the container was part of a pod. +- Fixed a bug where the `podman container runlabel` command could fail if the image name given included a tag. +- Fixed a bug where Podman could add an extra `127.0.0.1` entry to `/etc/hosts` under some circumstances ([#11596](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11596)). +- Fixed a bug where the remote Podman client's `podman untag` command did not properly handle tags including a digest ([#11557](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11557)). +- Fixed a bug where the `--format` option to `podman ps` did not properly support the `table` argument for tabular output. +- Fixed a bug where the `--filter` option to `podman ps` did not properly handle filtering by healthcheck status ([#11687](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11687)). +- Fixed a bug where the `podman run` and `podman start --attach` commands could race when retrieving the exit code of a container that had already been removed resulting in an error (e.g. by an external `podman rm -f`) ([#11633](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11633)). +- Fixed a bug where the `podman generate kube` command would add default environment variables to generated YAML. +- Fixed a bug where

([#11740](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11740)). +- Fixed a bug where renaming a container in a pod using the `podman rename` command, then removing the pod using `podman pod rm`, could cause Podman to believe the new name of the container was permanently in use, despite the container being removed ([#11750](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/11750)). + +### API +- The Libpod Pull endpoint for Images now has a new query parameter, `quiet`, which (when set to true) suppresses image pull progress reports ([#10612](https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/10612)).
