github_repository.terraform_repo: Refreshing state … (ID: terraform-repo)

Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

But if I change the name, then Terraform will try to apply the changes to the name by deleting and creating a new one with the current name. It is important to note that any data that we would push into this repository after the name change would be deleted. To check how updates will be performed, you can first ask for a list of actions to be performed with the command ./Terraform plane . And so, let's get started:

(agile-aleph-203917) $ cat main.tf

provider "github" {

token = "$ {var.github_token}"

}

resource "github_repository" "terraform_repo" {

name = "terraform-repo2"

description = "my terraform repo"

auto_init = true

}

(agile-aleph-203917) $ ./terraform plan

provider.github.organization

The GITHub organization name to manage.

Enter a value: essch

Refreshing Terraform state in-memory prior to plan …

The refreshed state will be used to calculate this plan, but will not be

persisted to local or remote state storage.
