Kubectl plugin shows differences and asks user to proceed to apply

kubectl-dapply

This plugin wraps kubectl apply with showing differences that will be applied and asking user to proceed or not prior to apply.

Details

Currenly, if user wants to see the differences before apply, user has to manually run kubectl diff command. This plugin provides a combined way of kubectl apply and kubectl diff commands with user interaction. It shows differences first and if user decides to proceed, it applies resources exactly the same way of kubectl apply does.
