~> 1.0 should give me the same version as >= 1.0.0, < 2.0.0 does

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

(Branching off from #224…)

I've been observing that using ~> 1.0 with tfswitch gives me the latest 1.0.x release rather than the latest 1.x release.

Terraform's docs say:

~>: Allows only the rightmost version component to increment. For example, to allow new patch releases within a specific minor release, use the full version number: ~> 1.0.4 will allow installation of 1.0.5 and 1.0.10 but not 1.1.0. This is usually called the pessimistic constraint operator.

~> 1.0 is expected to be equivalent to >= 1.0.0, < 2.0.0, but shorter.

I just upgraded a bunch of Homebrew packages yesterday, so now I have 0.13.1218. But I've been observing it since Terraform 1.1 came out.

This is my alias for cd:

cdtfswitch() {
    builtin cd "$@" || true
    cdir=$PWD
    if [ -e "$cdir/versions.tf" ]; then
        tfswitch
    fi
}

versions.tf is:

terraform {
  required_version = "~> 1.0"

  required_providers {
    aws = {
      source  = "hashicorp/aws"
      version = "~> 4.0"
    }
  }
}

Describe the solution you'd like

~> 1.0 should give me the same version as >= 1.0.0, < 2.0.0 does.

Isn't this actually #215, which was fixed in https://github.com/warrensbox/terraform-switcher/releases/tag/0.13.1218

@skyzyx
The latest terraform version is 1.1.9
Run show latest: tfswitch -U

In my version.tf, I have:

terraform {
  required_version = "~> 1.0"

  required_providers {
    aws        = ">= 2.52.0"
    kubernetes = ">= 1.11.1"
  }
}

When I run tfswitch in that directory, I get:

➜  test_versiontf git:(version_url_tweaks) ✗ tfswitch
Reading required version from terraform file
Reading required version from constraint: ~> 1.0
Matched version: 1.1.9
Switched terraform to version "1.1.9"

➜  test_versiontf git:(version_url_tweaks) ✗ terraform -v
Terraform v1.1.9
on darwin_amd64

Which is >= 1.0.0, < 2.0.0

I am using tfswitch Version: 0.13.1221. Can you install the latest tfswitch and try again?

[skyzyx]

OK. It has been an issue. Let me test this and try again.

Tested and working. Sorry for the late response. Resolving. Thank you!
