If you are upgrading from a 3.x version of {Singularity} we recommend also
12-
reviewing the `"What's New" section for 4.0

- A new ``--layer-format tar`` flag for ``singularity push`` allows layers in an
20-
OCI-SIF image to be pushed to ``library://`` and ``docker://`` registries with
21-
layers in the standard OCI tar format. Images pushed with ``--layer-format``
22-
tar can be pulled and run by other OCI runtimes. See :ref:`sec:layer-format`.

- Persistent overlays embedded in OCI-SIF files. See :ref:`overlay-oci-sif`.
25-
26-
- A writable overlay can be added to an OCI-SIF file with the ``singularity
27-
overlay create`` command. The overlay will be applied read-only, by default,
28-
when executing the OCI-SIF. To write changes to the container into the
29-
overlay, use the ``--writable`` flag.
30-
- A writable overlay is added to an OCI-SIF file as an ext3 format layer,
31-
appended to the encapsulated OCI image. After the overlay has been modified,
32-
use the ``singularity overlay sync`` command to synchronize the OCI digests with
33-
the overlay content.
34-
- A new ``singularity overlay seal`` command converts a writable overlay inside
35-
an OCI-SIF image into a read-only squashfs layer. This seals changes made to
36-
the image via the overlay, so that they are permanent.
37-
38-
- OCI-SIF data containers provide a way to package reference data into an
39-
OCI-SIF file that can be distributed alongside application containers. See
40-
:ref:`sec:data-containers`.
41-
42-
- A new ``singularity data package`` command allows files and directories to
43-
be packaged into an OCI-SIF data container.
44-
- A new ``--data <data container>:<dest>`` flag for OCI-Mode allows the
45-
contents of a data container to be made available at ``<dest>`` inside an
46-
application container.

- The new ``--netns-path`` flag takes a path to a network namespace to join when
54-
starting a container. The root user may join any network namespace. An
55-
unprivileged user can only join a network namespace specified in the new
56-
allowed ``netns paths directive`` in ``singularity.conf``, if they are also
57-
listed in ``allow net users`` / ``allow net groups``. Not currently supported
58-
with ``--fakeroot``, or in ``--oci`` mode. See :ref:`sec:netns-path`.
59-
- Instances can now be started via the new subcommand ``singularity instance
60-
run``, which will cause the instance to execute its ``%runscript`` rather than
61-
the ``%startscript``.
