Automatic merge from submit-queue Ensure slices are serialized as zero-length, not null Fixes https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/43203 null serialization of slices to prevent NPE errors in clients that store and expect to receive non-null JSON values in these fields. Ensures when we are converting to an external slice field that will be serialized even if empty (has `json` tag that does not include `omitempty`), we populate it with `[]`, not `nil` Other places I considered putting this logic instead: * When unmarshaling * Would have to be done for both protobuf and ugorji * Would still have to be done here (or on marshal) to handle cases where we construct objects to return * When marshaling * Would have to switch to use custom json marshaler (currently we use stdlib) * When defaulting * Defaulting isn't run on some fields, notably, pod template in rc/deployment spec * Would still have to be done here (or on marshal) to handle cases where we construct objects to return ```release-note API fields that previously serialized null arrays as `null` and empty arrays as `[]` no longer distinguish between those values and always output `[]` when serializing to JSON. ``` |

Kubernetes

Kubernetes is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts, providing basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications.
Kubernetes builds upon a decade and a half of experience at Google running production workloads at scale using a system called Borg, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community.
Kubernetes is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). If you are a company that wants to help shape the evolution of technologies that are container-packaged, dynamically-scheduled and microservices-oriented, consider joining the CNCF. For details about who's involved and how Kubernetes plays a role, read the CNCF announcement.
To start using Kubernetes
See our documentation on kubernetes.io.
Try our interactive tutorial.
Take a free course on Scalable Microservices with Kubernetes.
To start developing Kubernetes
The community repository hosts all information about building Kubernetes from source, how to contribute code and documentation, who to contact about what, etc.
If you want to build Kubernetes right away there are two options:
You have a working Go environment.
$ go get -d k8s.io/kubernetes
$ cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io/kubernetes
$ make
You have a working Docker environment.
$ git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
$ cd kubernetes
$ make quick-release
If you are less impatient, head over to the developer's documentation.
Support
If you need support, start with the troubleshooting guide and work your way through the process that we've outlined.
That said, if you have questions, reach out to us one way or another.
