DRY your Reference Architecture

This guide walks you through how to DRY (don’t repeat yourself) up the Terragrunt configurations in the Gruntwork Reference Architecture by leveraging the multi-include feature of Terragrunt that has been introduced in v0.32.0. Multi-include allows you to consolidate common configurations across environments into a separate configuration file that is imported alongside the project level configurations, drastically reducing the amount of duplicated configuration across your project.
