New Release Terraform-Associate-003 Terraform Associate Questions

This is how Terraform determines dependencies between resources, by using the references between them in the configuration files and other factors that affect the order of operations.

The best way to specify a tag of v1.0.0 when referencing a module stored in Git is to append ?ref=v1.0.0 argument to the source path. This tells Terraform to use a specific Git reference, such as a branch, tag, or commit, when fetching the module source code. For example, source = "git::https://example.com/vpc.git?ref=v1.0.0 ". This ensures that the module version is consistent and reproducible across different environments. References = [Module Sources], [Module Versions]

The .terraform.lock.hcl file is a new feature in Terraform 0.14 that records the exact versions of each provider used in your configuration. This helps ensure consistent and reproducible behavior across different machines and runs.

This is the Terraform style convention for indenting a nesting level compared to the one above it. The other options are not consistent with the Terraform style guide.
