For those who are as confused as me why Kubecfg exists in the Ksonnet org on Github, when they also have Ksonnet itself, I found this explanation: https://blog.heptio.com/the-next-chapter-for-ksonnet-1dcbbad30cb.
Short summary: They're different but somewhat complementary tools. Kubecfg was made by Bitnami, Ksonnet by Heptio. Kubecfg uses Jsonnet and is less opinioned than Ksonnet, but (as far as I can see) can also use Ksonnet.
