How to update Go application in Amazon Linux

Question

I am not familiar with Go. I want to update this application https://github.com/kahing/goofys to the recent version(right now its v0.0.10). I tried

$ go get github.com/kahing/goofys

$ go install github.com/kahing/goofys

But the version does not change. I need help.

Answer 1

Just run, -u is used for update.

go get -u github.com/kahing/goofys

Then run (optional step, if you see a binary goofys in $GOPATH/bin; go install is not required. See comments why)

go install github.com/kahing/goofys
