# Command: get
The `terraform get` command is used to download and update
[modules](/docs/modules/index.html).
## Usage
Usage: `terraform get [options] [dir]`
The modules are downloaded into a local `.terraform` folder. This
folder should not be committed to version control.
If a module is already downloaded and the `-update` flag is _not_ set,
Terraform will do nothing. As a result, it is safe (and fast) to run this
command multiple times.
The command-line flags are all optional. The list of available flags are:
* `-update` - If specified, modules that are already downloaded will be
checked for updates and the updates will be downloaded if present.
