So i work at an org with 1000s of terraform repos, we use the enterprise version which locks workspaces during runs etc.
everywhere else i’ve worked, we either just use some lock mechanism or only do applies from a specific branch and CI enforces they run one at a time.
My question is: who is this aimed at and what problem is it actually solving? Running terraform isn’t difficult - thousands of orgs handle it no problem - the issues I have with it with it have never been around lock contention and race conditions..
