The default is **false**. 8 9 When set to **true**, Podman allocates a pseudo-tty and attach to the standard 10 input of the container. This can be used, for example, to run a throwaway 11 interactive shell. 12 13 **NOTE**: The --tty flag prevents redirection of standard output. It combines STDOUT and STDERR, it can insert control characters, and it can hang pipes. This option is only used when run interactively in a terminal. When feeding input to Podman, use -i only, not -it.
