## The `full` and `master` images image
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This configuration does not produce the "full" image. That is instead produced
|
||||||
|
by the `Dockerfile` in the repository root, driven by updates to the "stable"
|
||||||
|
branch.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The "master" tag is updated for _every_ commit to the master branch of
|
||||||
|
the Terraform core repository. It is not recommended to use these images for
|
||||||
|
any production use, but they can be useful for testing bleeding-edge features
|
||||||
|
that are not yet included in a release.
