To fix this, we need to change the code within https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/reference-docs/ - see gen-compdocs/comps/gen_kube_docs.go

Feels like a good task for people who enjoy coding in Go.

no idea why this flag --v is not shown, but that's the first complain about it..

[tengqm]

Any evidence that the -v flag is supported in /cmd/kubeadm/app/cmd/init.go or related source?

https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/475ee33f698334e5b00c58d3bef4083840ec12c5/cmd/kubeadm/app/kubeadm.go#L38

That's where the flag is being added, along with add_dir_header and skip_headers. In either case it shows up when running --help, so it should be more than enough proof that the -v flag is supported.
