> incremental changelogs for the v0.13.0 prereleases, see
> [the v0.13.0-rc1 changelog](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/blob/v0.13.0-rc1/CHANGELOG.md).
This section contains details about various changes in the v0.13 major release. If you are upgrading from Terraform v0.12, we recommend first referring to [the v0.13 upgrade guide](https://www.terraform.io/upgrade-guides/0-13.html) for information on some common concerns during upgrade and guidance on ways to address them. (The final upgrade guide will be published only when v0.13.0 final is released.)

NEW FEATURES:
* **`count` and `for_each` for modules**: Similar to the arguments of the same name in `resource` and `data` blocks, these create multiple instances of a module from a single `module` block. ([#24461](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/24461))
* **`depends_on` for modules**: Modules can now use the `depends_on` argument to ensure that all module resource changes will be applied after any changes to the `depends_on` targets have been applied. ([#25005](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/25005))
* **Automatic installation of third-party providers**: Terraform now supports a decentralized namespace for providers, allowing for automatic installation of community providers from third-party namespaces in the public registry and from private registries. (More details will be added about this prior to release.)
* **Custom validation rules for input variables**: A new [`validation` block type](https://www.terraform.io/docs/configuration/variables.html#custom-validation-rules) inside `variable` blocks allows module authors to define validation rules at the public interface into a module, so that errors in the calling configuration can be reported in the caller's context rather than inside the implementation details of the module. ([#25054](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/25054))
* **New Kubernetes remote state storage backend**: This backend stores state snapshots as Kubernetes secrets. ([#19525](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/19525))
* [**`count` and `for_each` for modules**](https://www.terraform.io/docs/configuration/modules.html#multiple-instances-of-a-module): Similar to the arguments of the same name in `resource` and `data` blocks, these create multiple instances of a module from a single `module` block. ([#24461](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/24461))
* [**`depends_on` for modules**](https://www.terraform.io/docs/configuration/modules.html#other-meta-arguments): Modules can now use the `depends_on` argument to ensure that all module resource changes will be applied after any changes to the `depends_on` targets have been applied. ([#25005](https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/issues/25005))
* [**Automatic installation of third-party providers**](https://www.terraform.io/docs/configuration/provider-requirements.html): Terraform now supports a decentralized namespace for providers, allowing for automatic installation of community providers from third-party namespaces in the public registry and from private registries. (More details will be added about this prior to release.)
