Add a new option to allow for mounting artifacts in the container, the
syntax is added to the existing --mount option:
type=artifact,src=$artifactName,dest=/path[,digest=x][,title=x]
This works very similar to image mounts. The name is passed down into
the container config and then on each start we lookup the artifact and
the figure out which blobs to mount. There is no protaction against a
user removing the artifact while still being used in a container. When
the container is running the bind mounted files will stay there (as the
kernel keeps the mounts active even if the bind source was deleted).
On the next start it will fail to start as if it does not find the
artifact. The good thing is that this technically allows someone to
update the artifact with the new file by creating a new artifact with
the same name.

This subdirectory contains option (flag) names and descriptions
common to multiple podman man pages. Each file is one option. The
filename does not necessarily need to be identical to the option
name: for instance, hostname.container.md and hostname.pod.md
exist because the --hostname option is sufficiently different
between podman-{create,run} and podman-pod-{create,run} to
warrant living separately.
How
The files here are included in podman-*.md.in files using the @@option
mechanism:
@@option foo ! includes options/foo.md
The tool that does this is hack/markdown-preprocess. It is a python
script because it needs to run on readthedocs.io. From a given .md.in
file, this script creates a .md file that can then be read by
go-md2man, sphinx, anything that groks markdown. This runs as
part of make docs.
Special Substitutions
Some options are almost identical except for 'pod' vs 'container'
differences. For those, use <<text for pods|text for containers>>.
Order is immaterial: the important thing is the presence of the
string "pod" in one half but not the other. The correct string
is chosen based on the filename: if the file contains -pod,
such as podman-pod-create, the string with pod (case-insensitive)
in it is chosen.
The string <<subcommand>> is replaced with the podman subcommand
as determined from the filename, e.g., create for podman-create.1.md.in.
This allows the shared use of examples in the option file:
Example: podman <<subcommand>> --foo --bar
As a special case, podman-pod-X becomes just X (the "pod" is removed).
This makes the pod-id-file man page more useful. To get the full
subcommand including 'pod', use <<fullsubcommand>>.
Restrictions
There is a restriction for having a single text line with three
back-ticks in the front and the end of the line. For instance:
```Some man page text```
This is currently not allowed and causes a corruption of the
compiled man page. Instead, put the three back-ticks on separate
lines like:
