baude 7b08aa78e4 Shortcut for most recent container
It is desirable to have a shortcut for the most
recently created container.  We can now use "**latest"
to represent the most recent container instead of its
container ID or name.  For example:

# podman-stop "1" "September 2017" "podman"
## NAME
podman stop - Stop one or more containers
## SYNOPSIS
**podman stop [OPTIONS] CONTAINER [...]**
## DESCRIPTION
Stops one or more containers. You may use container IDs or names as input. The **--timeout** switch
allows you to specify the number of seconds to wait before forcibly stopping the container after the stop command
is issued to the container. The default is 10 seconds.
## OPTIONS
**--timeout, t**
Timeout to wait before forcibly stopping the container
**--all, -a**
Stop all running containers. This does not include paused containers.
**--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.
## EXAMPLE
podman stop mywebserver
podman stop 860a4b23
podman stop mywebserver 860a4b23
podman stop --timeout 2 860a4b23
podman stop -a
podman stop --latest
