i want iac, for iac i need a git service running, but how do i pull up the infrastructure for the git server without having anywhere to put the iac?

guess running terraform locally is the best option and then push both config and state up to the service
modern solutions bring about modern issues
@thermia yea IMO there's an unavoidable bootstrap
@thermia continuing the trauma vent - I had a clash with someone at work who *insisted* no TF state in git. I'm like where the fuck u want me to put the bit that sets up SSO and the buckets for state my dude?
@arichtman oh GOSH

yeahh it just kinda has to go somewhere for a bit

@thermia we're probably about to have at it again - he's all terraform is amazing, put everything in one repo. Ditto each technology - helm in another, containers in another.

I have done this dance before and I will *************** myself if we attempt it here as an unforced error
