Looks like backend remote was added but docs need to be update to explain how to update reference for remote. How to provide HTTP backend (usually setting TF_HTTP_ADDRESS, TF_HTTP_PASSWORD, TF_HTTP_USERNAME). Updating the docs for this project to explain how to initialize would be useful. Example of https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-pecdm being initialized to use this backend as well would be good for docs.
