- Fixed a bug to prevent segmentation fault from occurring when updating deeply nested JSON fields. ([#134381](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/134381), [@kon-angelo](https://github.com/kon-angelo)) [SIG API Machinery and CLI]

For 1.13, the areas of focus were in IPv6, DNS improvements and some smaller items:
CoreDNS is now the default cluster DNS passing all of the scale/resource usage tests
Node-local DNS cache feature is available in Alpha. This feature deploys a lightweight DNS caching Daemonset that avoids the conntrack and converts queries from UDP to more reliable TCP.
PodReady++ feature now has `kubectl` CLI support.

- Kubeadm: remove the "ephemeral_storage" request from the etcd static pod that kubeadm deploys on stacked etcd control plane nodes. This request has caused sporadic failures on some setups due to a problem in the kubelet with cadvisor and the LocalStorageCapacityIsolation feature gate. See this issue for more details: https://github.com/ku...

- Failed pods associated with a job with `parallelism = 1` are recreated by the job controller honoring exponential backoff delay again. However, for jobs with `parallelism > 1`, pods might be created without exponential backoff delay.
