docker-container-diff - Inspect changes to files or directories on a container's filesystem
docker container diff CONTAINER
List the changed files and directories in a container᾿s filesystem since the container was created. Three different types of change are tracked:
Symbol | Description |
A | A file or directory was added |
D | A file or directory was deleted |
C | A file or directory was changed |
You can use the full or shortened container ID or the container name set using docker run --name option.
Inspect the changes to an nginx container:
