I was really hoping this would come with rollback support for deployments. That, to me, would be the big advantage of having gcp manage the tfstate. It doesn’t look like that’s currently supported, but maybe that’s coming in the future.


Are you thinking of this as separate from a revert to the Terraform files and then a roll forward?


Yeah if I have multiple terraform projects in one repo it would be helpful to have a UI show deployments for each project with a list of rollouts so I can see which one I want to go back to. For SREs it might not be as helpful but if you delegate some scoped terraform module creation to the developers themselves it’d help them to have a simple UI for rollbacks


Ah yeah I see what you mean. At my last (big tech fwiw) shop as we were transitioning to GitOps, we ran into this issue a lot. My current gig we're too small for this to be a big issue for us but I remember the pain well.
