// when calculating pod topology spread skew. Options are:
  // - Honor: only nodes matching nodeAffinity/nodeSelector are included in the calculations.
  // - Ignore: nodeAffinity/nodeSelector are ignored. All nodes are included in the calculations.

- Fixes a regression in the pod binding subresource to honor the `metadata.uid` precondition.

- For kube-up and derived configurations, CoreDNS will honor master taints, for consistency with kube-dns behavior. ([#70868](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/70868), [@justinsb](https://github.com/justinsb))

- The AWS credential provider can now obtain ECR credentials even without the AWS cloud provider or being on an EC2 instance. Additionally, AWS credential provider caching has been improved to honor the ECR credential timeout.

- Fixed a regression in the pod binding subresource to honor the `metadata.uid` precondition.

- `kubectl exec` and `kubectl attach` now honor the `--quiet` flag which suppresses output from the local binary that could be confused by a script with the remote command output (all non-failure output is hidden). In addition, print inline with exec and attach the list of alternate containers when...
