    .SH "SYNOPSIS"

    .SH "DESCRIPTION"

        .PP Flatpak maintains a list of patterns that define which refs are masked. A masked ref will never be updated or automatically installed (for example a masked extension marked auto-download will not be downloaded). You can still manually install such refs, but once they are installed the version will be pinned.
        .PP The patterns are just a partial ref, with the * character matching anything within that part of the ref. Here are some example patterns:

    org.some.App
    org.some.App//unstable
    app/org.domain.*
    org.some.App/arm

        .PP To list the current set of masks, run this command without any patterns.

    .SH "OPTIONS"

        .PP The following options are understood:

            .PP -h, --help

                    Show help options and exit.

                .PP --remove

                        Instead of adding the patterns, remove matching patterns.
