* requests for a TLS client certificate for any node are approved if the CSR creator has `create` permission on the `certificatesigningrequests` resource and `nodeclient` subresource in the `certificates.k8s.io` API group

#### Create subcommands
  - `create poddisruptionbudget` ([#36646](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/36646), [@kargakis](https://github.com/kargakis))
  - `create clusterrole` ([#41538](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/41538), [@xingzhou](https://github.com/xingzhou))

With Kubernetes v1.12, SIG Storage also introduced alpha support for [volume snapshotting](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/177). This feature introduces the ability to create/delete volume snapshots and create new volumes from a snapshot using the Kubernetes API.

### SIG-vmware

- `kubectl run` has removed the previously deprecated generators, along with flags unrelated to creating pods. `kubectl run` now only creates pods. See specific `kubectl create` subcommands to create objects other than pods. 
([#87077](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87077), [@soltysh](https://github.com/soltysh)) [SIG Architecture, CLI and Testing]

  // The RuntimeClass admission controller will reject Pod create requests which have the overhead already
  // set. If RuntimeClass is configured and selected in the PodSpec, Overhead will be set to the value
  // defined in the corresponding RuntimeClass, otherwise it will remain unset and treated as zero.

- Added kubectl support for:
  - kubectl create secret docker-registry <NAME> --from-file=<path/to/.docker/config.json>
  - kubectl create secret docker-registry <NAME> --from-file=.dockerconfigjson=<path/to/.docker/config.json> ([#119589](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/119589), [@carlory](https://github.com/carlory))

### **Apps**

*   The `kubernetes.io/created-by` annotation is no longer added to controller-created objects. Use the `metadata.ownerReferences` item with controller set to `true` to determine which controller, if any, owns an object. ([#54445](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/54445),[ @crimsonfaith91](https://github.com/crimsonfaith91))

This removes the cloud-provider role and role binding from the rbac boostrapper and replaces it with a policy applied via addon mgr. This also creates a new clusterrole allowing the service account to create events for any namespace.

* client-go: alpha support for out-of-tree exec-based credential providers. For example, a cloud provider could create their own authentication system rather than using the standard authentication provided with Kubernetes. ([#59495](https://github.com/kuber...

* The `--bootstrap-kubeconfig` argument to Kubelet previously created the first bootstrap client credentials in the certificates directory as `kubelet-client.key` and `kubelet-client.crt`.  Subsequent certificates created by cert rotation were created in a combined PEM file that was atomically rotated as `kubelet-client-DATE.pem` in that directory, which meant clients relying on the `node.kubeconfig` generated...
