- Clone `kubernetes/kubernetes` in `update-vendor.sh` shallowly, instead of fetching all revisions
  - Speed up binpacking by reducing the number of PreFilter calls (call once per pod instead of #pods*#nodes times)
  - Speed up finding unneeded nodes by 5x+ in very large clusters by reducing the number of PreFilter calls
  - Expose `--max-nodes-total` as a metric

* azure: update disk lock logic per vm during attach/detach to allow concurrent updates for different nodes. ([#85115](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85115), [@aramase](https://github.com/aramase))

- CRD supports multi-version Schema, Subresources and AdditionalPrintColumns (NOTE that CRDs created prior to 1.13 populated the top-level additionalPrinterColumns field by default. To apply an updated that changes to per-version additionalPrinterColumns, the top-level additionalPrinterColumns field must be explicitly set to null). ([#70211](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/70211), [@roycaihw](https://github.com/roycaihw))

  - `kubectl` outputs warnings to stderr, and accepts a `--warnings-as-errors` option to treat warnings as fatal errors
  - `k8s.io/client-go` outputs warnings to stderr by default; override this per-client by setting `config.WarningHandler`, or per-process with `rest.SetDefaultWarningHandler()`

- Added a new command line argument `--interactive` to kubectl. The new command line argument lets a user confirm deletion requests per resource interactively. ([#114530](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/114530), [@ardaguclu](https://github.com/ardaguclu)) [SIG CLI and Testing]
- Added a new feature gate, `SchedulerQueueingHints` (enabled by default).

## Changes by Kind

### Deprecation

- Reverted the `DisableNodeKubeProxyVersion` feature gate to default-off to give a full year from deprecation announcement in 1.29 to clearing the field by default, per the [Kubernetes deprecation policy](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/using-api/deprecation-policy/). ([#126720](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126720), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt)) [SIG Architecture and Node]

- For raw block CSI volumes on Kubernetes, kubelet was incorrectly calling CSI NodeStageVolume for every single "map" (i.e. raw block "mount") operation for a volume already attached to the node. This PR ensures it is only called once per volume per node.
