Our prevailing writing style is to place punctuation outside of quotes, since in many contexts Terraform itself treats punctuation within quotes as significant and so it can be confusing to use punctuation in quotes in our prose.
In the 0.10 release we added an opt-in mode where Terraform would prompt
interactively for confirmation during apply. We made this opt-in to give
those who wrap Terraform in automation some time to update their scripts
to explicitly opt out of this behavior where appropriate.
Here we switch the default so that a "terraform apply" with no arguments
will -- if it computes a non-empty diff -- display the diff and wait for
the user to type "yes" in similar vein to the "terraform destroy" command.
This makes the commonly-used "terraform apply" a safe workflow for
interactive use, so "terraform plan" is now mainly for use in automation
where a separate planning step is used. The apply command remains
non-interactive when given an explicit plan file.
The previous behavior -- though not recommended -- can be obtained by
explicitly setting the -auto-approve option on the apply command line,
and indeed that is how all of the tests are updated here so that they can
continue to run non-interactively.
* update plugin/provider to make clear this section isn't needed for regular use
* add some links and notes about getting started
* remove the mention of binaries... I 'm not sure it's needed yet
* 'Installing Terraform Providers' section
* sometimes I can't words good
* move the 'installing providers' block
* cleanup of terms
* copy that update to plugins/provider too
