The supported options are + **size=SIZE** to specify an explicit size for the automatic user namespace. e.g. `--userns=auto:size=8192`.

This is the default if no user namespace options are set. The processes running in the container will have the same privileges on the host as any other process launched by the calling user. - `keep-id`: creates a user namespace where the current rootless user's UID:GID are mapped to the same values in the container. This option is ignored for containers created by the root user. -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
