If you are struggling to pinpoint file changes inside your Docker containers then try out the powerful “docker container diff” command.

docker diff allows us to quickly identify all added, modified, or deleted files within a specific container since its creation or last start.

With just one command, we can:

  • Track changes for smooth deployments
  • Understand the impact of recent modifications
  • Troubleshoot issues by detecting root causes
  • Audit for unauthorized or unexpected alterations
