╷
│ Error: Incompatible provider version
│
│ Provider registry.terraform.io/aztfmod/azurecaf v1.2.6 does not have a package available for your current platform, darwin_arm64.
│
│ Provider releases are separate from Terraform CLI releases, so not all providers are available for all platforms. Other versions of this provider may have different platforms supported.

We need to generate the terraform scripts with a higher version of the provider, I tried to do this but found that even if the azurecaf project supports already arm64 on version 1.2.8 we need to wait until they publish the ARM64 azurecaf provider binaries to fix it. aztfmod/terraform-provider-azurecaf#126

Thanks! Let me upgrade to this new version (was this released 30 minutes ago for real????).
I unfortunately can't test, as I don't have one of those new Macs, so @iemejia I'll ping you when it's ready so you can have a try.

Wow I cannot go take lunch before you all fix this. Amazing!
I confirm terraform init works now on Mac M1 (with latest master)! Nice!

@jdubois You have to upgrade de nubesgen.com site so this fix gets out for everyone still.

Thank you @iemejia ! I need several days before doing a new release, we're a bit stuck with the addition of VNet, which is super complicated.
