Guidance on skipping minor versions for a 1.x.x upgrade

Terraform

I know each TF minor release has it’s own upgrade guide, but I was wondering if it’s considered “safe” to upgrade a codebase several minor versions at a time (say 1.3.x → 1.9.x)? And when I say “safe” I mean you’ve clearly read each minor version’s release notes and make sure none of the potential issues would affect your codebase’s upgrade path.

Or is it better practice to upgrade each minor version along the way (1.3.x → 1.4.x → 1.5.x, etc.)? And just to be clear: I am only talking about upgrades after the 1.0.0 release.

I haven’t seen much of any discussion around this unless my searches have failed me. Thanks.

Hi @chiefy,

It should be safe to upgrade between any v1 minor version releases, which is probably why there’s no prior discussion :wink:
