- `kubectl scale` now uses the Scale subresource for kinds in the apps/v1beta2 group.

- `kubectl create configmap` and `kubectl create secret` subcommands now support
  the `--append-hash` flag, which enables unique but deterministic naming for
  objects generated from files, for example with `--from-file`.

- `kubectl run` can set a service account name in the generated pod
  spec with the `--serviceaccount` flag.
