For ObjectMeta pruning, we round trip through marshalling and unmarshalling. If the ObjectMeta contained any strings with "" (or other fields with empty values) _and_ the respective fields are omitempty, those fields will be lost in the round trip process. This makes ObjectMeta after the no-op write different from the one before the write. Resource version is incremented every time data is written to etcd. Writes to etcd short-circuit if the bytes being written are identical to the bytes already present. So this ends up incrementing the resourceVersion even on no-op writes. The zero values are set in BeforeCreate and BeforeUpdate. This commit updates BeforeUpdate such that zero values are only set when the object does not have a zero value for the respective field.
External Repository Staging Area
This directory is the staging area for packages that have been split to their own repository. The content here will be periodically published to respective top-level k8s.io repositories.
Repositories currently staged here:
k8s.io/apiextensions-apiserverk8s.io/apik8s.io/apimachineryk8s.io/apiserverk8s.io/client-gok8s.io/kube-aggregatork8s.io/code-generatork8s.io/metricsk8s.io/sample-apiserverk8s.io/sample-controller
The code in the staging/ directory is authoritative, i.e. the only copy of the code. You can directly modify such code.
Using staged repositories from Kubernetes code
Kubernetes code uses the repositories in this directory via symlinks in the
vendor/k8s.io directory into this staging area. For example, when
Kubernetes code imports a package from the k8s.io/client-go repository, that
import is resolved to staging/src/k8s.io/client-go relative to the project
root:
// pkg/example/some_code.go
package example
import (
"k8s.io/client-go/dynamic" // resolves to staging/src/k8s.io/client-go/dynamic
)
Once the change-over to external repositories is complete, these repositories
will actually be vendored from k8s.io/<package-name>.
