Fixes #1. Now kubectx also ships with kubens. Extracted utility functions to a utils.bash file, loaded from ../include/utils.bash. Signed-off-by: Ahmet Alp Balkan <ahmetb@google.com>
This repository provides both kubectx and kubens tools. Purpose of this
project is to provide an utility and facilitate discussion about how kubectl
can manage contexts better.
