- Enhanced cloud provider integrations to support optional, per-Node custom labels that can be supplied and applied to Nodes by the node controller. These extra labels will only be applied where the cloud provider integration supports this feature.

- Watch will now support...

    * Old behavior:
      * environment variables explicitly whitelisted via --docker-env-metadata-whitelist were exported as `container_env_*=*`. Default is zero so by default non were exported
      * all docker labels were exported as `container_label_*=*`

* Fix initial exec terminal dimensions. ([#51126](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51126), [@chen-anders](https://github.com/chen-anders))
* vSphere: Fix attach volume failing on the first try. ([#51218](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51218), [@BaluDontu](https://github.com/BaluDontu))



# v1.6.9

of selectors to accommodate both [equality-based selectors](http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/labels/#equality-based-requirement) supported by ReplicationControllers and [set-based selectors](http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/labels/#set-based-requirement) supported by Deployments and ReplicaSets.
  * “kubectl run” now produces Deployments (instead of ReplicationControllers) and
Jobs (instead of Pods) by default.

* This change applies zone labels to vSphere Volumes automatically. The zone labels are visible on the PV: ([#72687](https://github.com/kubernetes/ku...

- The `volume_zone` plugin will consider `beta` labels as `GA` labels during the scheduling
  process. Therefore, if the values of the labels are the same, PVs with `beta` labels
  can also be scheduled to nodes with `GA` labels. ([#118923](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118923), [@AxeZhan](https://github.com/AxeZhan))

* Fixed regression in initial kubectl exec terminal dimensions ([#51127](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51127), [@chen-anders](https://github.com/chen-anders))
