Subject: [PATCH] Create Backend2.tf

Hi there

i really impressed by the work u are doing .

Here i am trying to do everything in terraform, create my bucket and my DynamoDb then the backend config..however i must first comment out the last block , initilize , apply then uncomment re-initilize so as to migrate from local to remote S3..is there a once -off alternative in terraform
