       ├───────┼─────────────────────────────────┤

       ├───────┼─────────────────────────────────┤
       │D      │ A file or directory was deleted │
       ├───────┼─────────────────────────────────┤
       │C      │ A file or directory was changed │
       └───────┴─────────────────────────────────┘

       You  can use the full or shortened container ID or the container name set using docker run
       --name option.
