What is a Holdout shader?

almazworks Author

* @momotron2000 * The Holdout shader is used to create a “hole” in the image with zero alpha transparency, which is useful for compositing.

* @momotron2000 * If you are making pre rendered sprites it makes "cutting" out equipment a lot easier. I use it to make equipment for paper doll like sprites.

Seriously, I was looking for how to do this just now.
