cloudposse/terraform-aws-tfstate-backend v1.9.0

on GitHub

• Fix incorrect s3_state_lock_enabled variable description (was "Whether to create the S3 bucket", now correctly describes S3 native state locking)
• Add deprecation note to dynamodb_enabled variable description linking to official Terraform docs
• Add "S3 Native State Locking" section to README with usage example

why

• Terraform 1.10+ introduced S3 native state locking via use_lockfile = true, deprecating DynamoDB-based locking
• The module already supports S3 native locking (s3_state_lock_enabled variable exists) but the documentation doesn't mention it and the variable description is incorrect
• Users are confused about how to use the module without DynamoDB (#188, #194)
• DynamoDB-based locking is officially deprecated
