I saw from the official author of the deprecating flag that it started to be deprecated on v1.12 referencing here: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/68132

Wanted to know the exact Kubernetes version where this --generator flag was officially deprecated/removed. If there is official documentation, please let me know through your comments.

CodePudding user response：

Kubernetes uses a CHANGELOG file for every version released. The newest one is linked at https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/CHANGELOG/CHANGELOG-1.25.md.

An easy and practicble approach is to crawl these files "backwards" (as the naming scheme is consistent) and do a full text search for e. g. "generator". You won't have to do that a lot, because the 1.24 changelog is already what you need. It says:

Removed deprecated generator and container-port flags (#106824, @lauchokyip)

So, the flag was removed in 1.24.
