buildah-mount - Mount a working container's root filesystem.

       Mounts  the specified container's root file system in a location which can be accessed from the host, and
       returns its location.

       If the mount command is invoked without any arguments, the tool will list all of  the  currently  mounted
       containers.

       When  running  in rootless mode, mount runs in a different namespace so that the mounted volume might not
       be accessible from the host when using a driver different than vfs.  To be able to access the file system
       mounted, you might need to create the mount namespace separately as part  of  buildahunshare.   In  the
       environment  created  with  buildahunshare you can then use buildahmount and have access to the mounted
       file system.

       If running in rootless mode, you need to do a buildah unshare first to use the mount point.

       $ buildah unshare
       # buildah mount working-container
       /var/lib/containers/storage/overlay/f8cac5cce73e5102ab321cc5b57c0824035b5cb82b6822e3c86ebaff69fefa9c/merged

       # buildah unmount working-container
       # exit
