# podman-commit "1" "December 2017" "podman"
## NAME
podman commit - Create new image based on the changed container
## SYNOPSIS
**podman commit**
**TARBALL**
[**--author**|**-a**]
[**--change**|**-c**]
[**--message**|**-m**]
[**--help**|**-h**]
## DESCRIPTION
**podman commit** creates an image based on a changed container. The author of the
image can be set using the **--author** flag. Various image instructions can be
configured with the **--change** flag and a commit message can be set using the
**--message** flag. The container and its processes are paused while the image is
committed. This minimizes the likelihood of data corruption when creating the new
image. If this is not desired, the **--pause** flag can be set to false.
