### Failing Test

- Escape the special characters like `[`, `]` and ` ` that exist in vsphere windows path ([#98830](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98830), [@liyanhui1228](https://github.com/liyanhui1228)) [SIG Storage and Windows]

- Ginkgo: when e2e tests are invoked through ginkgo-e2e.sh, the default now is to use color escape sequences only when connected to a terminal. `GINKGO_NO_COLOR=y/n` can be used to override that default. ([#111633](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111633), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

- In text format, log messages that previously used quoting to prevent multi-line output (for example, text="some \"quotation\", a\nline break") will now be printed with more readable multi-line output without the escape sequences. ([#107103](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/107103), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly))

- Fixed the issue where logging output of kube-scheduler configuration files included line breaks and escape characters. The output also attempted to output the configuration file in one section without showing the user a more readable format. ([#106228](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/106228), [@sanchayanghosh](https://github.com/sanchayanghosh))...

* Removed always pull policy from the template for ingress on CDK. ([#61598](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61598), [@hyperbolic2346](https://github.com/hyperbolic2346))
* escape literal percent sign when formatting ([#61523](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/61523), [@dixudx](https://github.com/dixudx))

- Replace scale down forbidden window with scale down stabilization window. Rather than waiting a fixed period of time between scale downs HPA now scales down to the highest recommendation it during the scale down stabilization window. ([#68122](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68122), [@krzysztof-jastrzebski](https://github.com/krzysztof-jastrzebski))...

### Autoscaling

- Horizontal Pod Autoscaling can now scale targets up even when one or more metrics are invalid/unavailable, as long as one metric indicates a scale up should occur. ([#78503](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78503), [@gjtempleton](https://github.com/gjtempleton))


### AWS

 - Fixes a bug defining a default value for a replicas field in a custom resource definition that has the scale subresource enabled ([#90020](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/90020), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG API Machinery, CLI, Cloud Provider, Cluster Lifecycle and Instrumentation]

* The ability to use kubectl scale jobs is deprecated. All other scale operations remain in place, but the ability to scale jobs will be removed in a future release.  ([#60139](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/60139), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh))

  that provide new subcommands. Refer to the documentation for more information.

- `kubectl rollout` and `rollback` now support StatefulSet.

- `kubectl scale` now uses the Scale subresource for kinds in the apps/v1beta2 group.

- `kubectl create configmap` and `kubectl create secret` subcommands now support
  the `--append-hash` flag, which enables unique but deterministic naming for
