- When using `kubectl replace` (or the equivalent API call) on a Service, the caller no longer needs to do a read-modify-write cycle to fetch the allocated values for `.spec.clusterIP` and `.spec.ports[].nodePort`.  Instead the API server will automatically carry these forward from the original object when the new object does not specify them. ([#104673](https://github.co...

   *
   * <p>This method accepts an array with element type {@code @Nullable T}, but callers must pass an
   * array whose contents are initially non-null. The {@code @Nullable} annotation indicates that
   * this method will write nulls into the array during iteration.
   *
   * <p>This is mainly just to avoid the intermediate ArrayDeque in ConsumingQueueIterator.

- Prevent `resourceVersion` updates for custom resources on no-op writes. ([#67562](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67562), [@nikhita](https://github.com/nikhita))

* When performing a GET then PUT, the kube-apiserver must write the canonical representation of the object to etcd if the current value does not match. That allows external agents to migrate content in etcd from one API version to another, across different storage types, or across varying encryption levels. This...

there is no forced requirement to upgrade to latest release upon every release. Some release may not be relevant to your setup, avoid upgrading production environments unnecessarily. - If you plan to use `mc admin update`, MinIO process must have write access to the parent directory where the binary is present on the host system. - `mc admin update` is not supported and should be avoided in kubernetes/container environments, please upgrade containers by upgrading relevant container images. - **We...
