When I tried this locally, there were issues with extracting the version as below since we're doing a shallow-clone. Were you able to get around this?

What do you mean exactly by "issues with extracting the version as below"?
I didn't have any issues. The only place this variable is even used is in build-kind-image.sh, so now this just allows what used to be hard-coded there to be overwritten.

Let's say that you want to check out a branch:
KIND_K8S_REPO=https://github.com/pohly/kubernetes \
KIND_K8S_TAG=dra-structured-parameters \
./demo/clusters/kind/create-cluster.sh
Since we do a shallow clone of the repo and this does not contain tag information the kubernets build fails.
I was able to get around this locally in initial testing by setting KUBE_GIT_VERSION=v1.30.0 in addition to the envvars above. This could also be addressed by:
- Building a full repo clone that's already checked out instead.
- "unshallowing" the clone so that
git describe --tagsreturns some sane version string in the repo.

I am also setting KUBE_GIT_VERSION=v1.30.0 (because this is what you told me to do in slack). I never tried without it (nor really attempted to understand why it was necessary, apparently).
