- Commands like `kubectl apply` now return errors if schema-invalid annotations are specified, rather than silently dropping the entire annotations section. ([#83552](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83552), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))

* Exec and portforward actions over SPDY now properly handle redirects sent by the Kubelet ([#44451](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/44451), [@ncdc](https://github.com/ncdc))

## Urgent Upgrade Notes

### (No, really, you MUST read this before you upgrade)

#### Cluster Lifecycle

- Container images tar files for `amd64` will now contain the architecture in the RepoTags manifest.json section.
  If you are using docker manifests there are not visible changes. ([#80266](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/80266), [@javier-b-perez](https://github.com/javier-b-perez))
