### kubectl
* Running `kubectl taint` (alpha in 1.5) against a 1.6 server requires upgrading kubectl to version 1.6
* Running `kubectl taint` (alpha in 1.5) against a 1.5 server requires a kubectl version of 1.5
* Running `kubectl create secret` no longer accepts passing multiple values to a single --from-literal flag using comma separation

#### CLI Changes

- [alpha] `kubectl` plugins: `kubectl` now allows binary extensibility. You can extend the default set of `kubectl` commands by writing plugins
  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 patch now respects --local ([#67399](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67399), [@deads2k](https://github.com/deads2k))
- kubectl: When an object can't be updated and must be deleted by force, kubectl will now recreating resources for immutable fields.([#66602](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/66602), [@dixudx](https://github.com/dixudx))

### **kubectl (CLI)**
* Features

  * `kubectl logs` supports specifying a container name when using label selectors ([#44282](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/44282), [@derekwaynecarr](https://github.com/derekwaynecarr))

  * `kubectl rollout` supports undo and history for DaemonSet ([#46144](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46144), [@janetkuo](https://github.com/janetkuo))

- Kubectl: `kubectl get` will omit managed fields by default now. Users could set `--show-managed-fields` to true to show managedFields when the output format is either `json` or `yaml`.

    *   kubectl kustomize <somedir> has the same effect as kustomize build <somedir>
    * To build API resources from somedir with a kustomization.yaml file
    *    kubectl kustomize <somedir>
    * This command can be piped to apply or delete 
    *    kubectl kustomize <somedir> | kubectl apply -f -
    *    kubectl kustomize <somedir> | kubectl delete -f -

### SIG CLI

SIG CLI's main focus this release was on refactoring `kubectl` internals to improve composability, readability and testability of `kubectl` commands. Those refactors will allow the team to extract a mechanism for extensibility of kubectl -- that is, plugins -- in the next releases.
