kubernetes/docs/kubectl-log.md
Eric Paris a6beb2e7df Autogenerate md documentation for kubectl 
This does away with the giant dump from cobra for kubectl and instead
generates md files which contain similar information, but one per verb.
This might work well as part of the cobra project, instead of doing it
in kube, but this gets us nice, linked, documentation right now.  If
people like it, I will try to get something similar into cobra.

$ kubectl log 123456-7890 ruby-container
// Returns snapshot of ruby-container logs from pod 123456-7890.

$ kubectl log -f 123456-7890 ruby-container
// Starts streaming of ruby-container logs from pod 123456-7890.

kubectl log [-f] []
