@ -150,3 +150,11 @@ In both the `required_version` and `required_providers` settings, each override
constraint entirely replaces the constraints for the same component in the
original block. If both the base block and the override block both set
`required_version` then the constraints in the base block are entirely ignored.
The presence of a block defining a backend (either `cloud` or `backend`) in an override
file always takes precedence over a block defining a backend in the original configuration.
That is, if a `cloud` block is set within the original configuration and a `backend` block is
set in the override file, Terraform will use the `backend` block specified in the override file upon merging.
Similarly, if a `backend` block is set within the original configuration and a `cloud` block
is set in the override file, Terraform will use the `cloud` block specified in the override
file upon merging.
