kustomize create should add config.kubernetes.io/local-config annotation

[ringerc]

Eschewed features

• This issue is not requesting templating, unstuctured edits, build-time side-effects from args or env vars, or any other eschewed feature.

What would you like to have added?

The kustomize docs recommend that kustomization.yaml (and things like transformer configs) should have

metadata:
  annotations:
    config.kubernetes.io/local-config: "true"

but kustomize create does not add this itself.

Why is this needed?

see kustomize help docs-io-annotations

Can you accomplish the motivating task without this feature, and if so, how?

Yes, just patch the created resource with yq, or generate the kustomization manually.

What other solutions have you considered?

Not adding it, it's not (yet) vital

Anything else we should know?

No response
