Manifests are rewritten by default, which includes a normalization phase.
This can make it hard to understand the actual changes (as opposed to just the formatting changes).
A feature flag has been added, export KOPS_FEATURE_FLAGS="-RewriteManifests" which can be used
to disable manifest rewriting. A recommendation: you can run kops update twice, once without
manifest formatting to show the real changes, and then immediately afterwards with manifest changes,
which will be just formatting changes. Run KOPS_FEATURE_FLAGS="-RewriteManifests" kops update cluster,
to show the real changes, apply them with KOPS_FEATURE_FLAGS="-RewriteManifests" kops update cluster --yes,
then run kops update cluster to show the formatting changes, followed by kops update cluster --yes
Default disk size increased to 64GB (masters) and 128GB (nodes). This does have a higher cost, but also gives us more inodes & more iops (and more disk space, of course!)
Calico now configured with the correct pod CIDR: #2768. Please refer to the Required Actions section for details regarding this.
