Martin Atkins ab2dc0d987 website: "terraform push" version matching requirement
It's important to match the version of local Terraform with the remote Terraform version in Terraform Enterprise when using the "terraform push" command, or else the uploaded configuration package may not be compatible.

Martin Atkins 400038eda4 command: "terraform apply" uses interactive confirmation by default
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.

Martin Atkins adbb9d0cf9 website: checkpoint settings refer to CLI config file docs
Previously we described inline here where to put the .terraformrc file,
but now we have a separate page all about this file that gives us more
room to describe in more detail where the file is placed and what else it
can do.

Martin Atkins 8a7a0a7459 command: terraform init -from-module=...
This restores the earlier behavior of the first positional argument to
terraform init in 0.9, but as a command line option.

The positional argument was removed to improve consistency with other
commands that take a working directory as their first positional argument.
It was originally intended that this functionality would return in a
later release along with some other general improvements to Terraform's
module handling, but we're introducing here an interim solution that
uses the existing module source concept, to allow for easier porting of
workflows that previously depended on the automatic copy behavior.

In a future release this feature may change again as the module
improvements design firms up, but we expect it to be broadly compatible
with this temporary state.

Martin Atkins 23ef0e3247 website: more-elaborate "terraform init" docs
The "terraform init" command has a lot of different functionality now,
making it hard to follow all of the options in the previous presentation.
Instead, here we describe each of the steps and its associated options
separately, hopefully making it easier to understand what each option
relates to.

In addition, much of the detail around backend partial configuration is
factored out into the backend configuration page, where it seems more
"at home"; previously it felt hard to follow exactly how partial
configuration would be used, due to the information on it being split over
two different pages.

Martin Atkins f6dace3476 website: document the Checkpoint service and how to disable it
This is documented for all other Hashicorp products using this service but
was missed for Terraform. This serves as a disclosure of the fact that
Terraform reaches out to a Hashicorp service, an explanation of the
purpose of that request, and instructions on how to disable it in
environments where it is inappropriate or cannot be supported due to a
firewall or other connectivity restrictions.

David Glasser 039d36bf91 command: add "apply -auto-approve=false" flag
A common reason to want to use `terraform plan` is to have a chance to
review and confirm a plan before running it.  If in fact that is the
only reason you are running plan, this new `terraform apply -auto-approve=false`
flag provides an easier alternative to

    P=$(mktemp -t plan)
    terraform refresh
    terraform plan -refresh=false -out=$P
    terraform apply $P
    rm $P

The flag defaults to true for now, but in a future version of Terraform it will
default to false.

Martin Atkins a8c58b081c core: -target option to also select resources in descendant modules
Previously the behavior for -target when given a module address was to
target only resources directly within that module, ignoring any resources
defined in child modules.

This behavior turned out to be counter-intuitive, since users expected
the -target address to be interpreted hierarchically.

We'll now use the new "Contains" function for addresses, which provides
a hierarchical "containment" concept that is more consistent with user
expectations. In particular, it allows module.foo to match
module.foo.module.bar.aws_instance.baz, where before that would not have
been true.

Since Contains isn't commutative (unlike Equals) this requires some
special handling for targeting specific indices. When given an argument
like -target=aws_instance.foo[0], the initial graph construction (for
both plan and refresh) is for the resource nodes from configuration, which
have not yet been expanded to separate indexed instances. Thus we need
to do the first pass of TargetsTransformer in mode where indices are
ignored, with the work then completed by the DynamicExpand method which
re-applies the TargetsTransformer in index-sensitive mode.

This is a breaking change for anyone depending on the previous behavior
of -target, since it will now select more resources than before. There is
no way provided to obtain the previous behavior. Eventually we may support
negative targeting, which could then combine with positive targets to
regain the previous behavior as an explicit choice.
