recently created container.  We can now use "**latest"
to represent the most recent container instead of its
container ID or name.  For example:

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
