GVM is a version manager for the Go programming language. It allows users to install, uninstall, and switch between multiple Go versions seamlessly, manage sets of Go packages (pkgsets), maintain isolated project environments, and handle source or binary installations. It also supports listing all available Go version tags, caching clean Go source code for reuse, and overlaying GOPATHs for project specific dependencies. Its goal is to make working with many Go versions / evolving Go codebases easier.
Features
- Install and uninstall arbitrary Go versions (tags, pre-release, “tip”, etc.), supporting both source builds and binary installations
- List all available version tags with listall, optionally including weekly releases etc.
- Manage multiple GOPATHs via pkgsets (create/use/delete), including local project-specific pkgsets
- Cache clean copies of Go source to speed up repeated builds or installations
- Support linking project directories into GOPATH so one can work with code in place but still use isolation via pkgsets
- Tools for diffing added/removed files in GOROOT for Go versions (gvm diff) to see what changed between versions
