- The helping message of commands which have sub-commands is now clearer and more instructive. It will show the full command instead of `kubectl <command> --help ...`
  

- K8s.io/component-base/logs: usage of the pflag values in a normal Go flag set led to panics when printing the help message ([#114680](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114680), [@pohly](https://github.com/pohly)) [SIG Instrumentation]

For the 1.8 release, SIG Scheduling extended the concept of cluster sharing by introducing
pod priority and pod preemption. These features allow mixing various types of workloads in a single cluster, and help reach
higher levels of resource utilization and availability.
These features are in alpha. SIG Scheduling also improved the internal APIs for scheduling and made them easier for other components and external schedulers to use.

- Kube-controller-manager's help will include controllers behind a feature gate in `--controllers` flag ([#120371](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/120371), [@atiratree](https://github.com/atiratree)) [SIG API Machinery]
