Automatic merge from submit-queue (batch tested with PRs 41797, 41793, 41795, 41807, 41781) Don't use base64 encoding with etcd v3 In https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/36229 we changed the default storage to etcd v3. This in fact is a fix to that PR. With etcd v3, the base64-encoding is no longer needed - so we use it only if etcd v2 is explicitly requested as storage format. @lavalamp
This staging/src/k8s.io/client-go directory is the staging area of the client repo. It contains a versioned client, tools built around the client like the reflector, and all the client dependencies. The content will be periodically published to k8s.io/client-go repo.
The staged content is copied from the main repo, i.e., k8s.io/kubernetes, with directory rearrangement and necessary rewritings. To sync the content with the latest code in your local k8s.io/kubernetes, you need to run godep restore in k8s root directory, then run staging/copy.sh.
vendor/k8s.io/client-go is a symlink pointing to this staging area, so to use the packages in the staging area, you can import it as "vendor/client-go/", as if the client were vendored. The client will be vendored from k8s.io/client-go for real after the test matrix is converted to vendor k8s components.
