resource "github_repository" "simulator" {

  has_projects           = false

Repository is initially created with vulnerability alerts disabled, and running Terraform again enables the vulnerability alerts.

I've confirmed this behavior and drafted a PR to fix it. I'll see about investigating any possible side effects more thoroughly and try to resolve the issue!

Hi @kfcampbell,
will your fix help in some way with this too?

[kfcampbell]

@ppferrari I don't believe so. I've asked around internally and it looks like that has a separate API. I'll make a comment to that effect over there. If nobody beats me to it, I can take a peek at that issue once this fix is in.
