    10  ## Display comments in the image history
    11  The `docker commit` command has a **-m** flag for adding comments to the image. These comments will be displayed in the image history.
    12  
    13      $ sudo docker history docker:scm
    14      IMAGE               CREATED             CREATED BY                                      SIZE                COMMENT

    20  ### Format the output
    21  
    22  The formatting option (`--format`) will pretty-prints history output
    23  using a Go template.
    24  
    25  Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:
    26  
    27  | Placeholder     | Description |
    28  | --------------- | ----------- |
    29  | `.ID`           | Image ID    |
    30  | `.CreatedSince` | Elapsed time since the image was created if `--human=true`, otherwise timestamp of when image was created |
    31  | `.CreatedAt`    | Timestamp of when image was created |
    32  | `.CreatedBy`    | Command that was used to create the image |
    33  | `.Size`         | Image disk size |
    34  | `.Comment`      | Comment for image |
    35  
    36  When using the `--format` option, the `history` command will either
    37  output the data exactly as the template declares or, when using the
    38  `table` directive, will include column headers as well.
    39  
    40  The following example uses a template without headers and outputs the
    41  `ID` and `CreatedSince` entries separated by a colon for all images:
    42  
    43  ```bash
    44  $ docker images --format "{{.ID}}: {{.CreatedSince}} ago"
