About:
Tfupdate is a command-line tool designed to manage version constraints in Terraform configuration files. It automatically updates provider, module, and backend versions in .tf and .tfvars files, helping teams maintain up-to-date infrastructure code. The tool simplifies dependency management and reduces manual errors when keeping Terraform projects current.

Key Features:

Updates Terraform provider, module, and backend version constraints
Supports updating to latest versions or specific target versions
Works with local files, Terraform Registry, and Git repositories
Provides dry-run mode to preview changes before applying
Can update multiple files or directories in batch

Use Cases:

Automating version updates across large Terraform codebases
Keeping infrastructure dependencies current for security and compatibility
CI/CD pipeline integration for automated dependency management
Standardizing version constraints across multiple Terraform projects

Alternatives:

tfenv – Manages Terraform CLI versions, not provider/module constraints
renovate – Broader dependency update tool, more complex configuration
manual updates – Time-consuming and error-prone for large projects
