Feature request description
podman start
should be able to pass environment variables to the container. My use case is to turn DEBUG on/off for development, without recreating the container.Suggest potential solution
Adding the same
--env, -e=env
flags as for podman run would solve the problem.Have you considered any alternatives?
Recreating the container is a workaround, but that is annoying and cumbersome when you just want to pass a debugging flag once and the container is initially created and run by systemd or some other service management system.
Additional context
The same issue exists in docker since over 10 years, with overwhelming community demand but unwillingness from the developers to implement it.
