Monogo is a command-line interface (CLI) tool tailored for managing Go workspace monorepos, functioning as a configuration-free companion similar to Turborepo but specifically designed for the Go programming language. Users can install Monogo by cloning its GitHub repository and building the binary with the command `go install github.com/nicolasgere/monogo@latest`. The tool offers several commands to facilitate the management of Go modules, including installing dependencies, formatting modules, and running tests. Each command supports common flags such as `--target` to specify a module, `--dependency` to include all dependencies, `--branch` for comparing branches, and `--path` to define the working directory. Monogo is particularly beneficial for developers working with Go monorepos, as it streamlines the processes of dependency management, code formatting, and testing across multiple modules.

Go automatically downloads a newer toolchain if needed
Go now automatically downloads newer toolchains from version 1.21, allowing users to manage toolchain versions via the GOTOOLCHAIN variable, with security measures in place to ensure safe downloads.
3 commentsLike, go already has test caching (so "only test stuff that changed" shouldn't be necessary, that should just happen), and code formatting and such is already quite fast...
Overall, I feel like having another tool which parses my go source code is going to be slower than writing a Makefile to wrap:
go list -f '{{.Dir}}' -m | xargs -L1 go test ./...
Also, hilariously, the repo isn't go fmt'd [0], despite being a tool to go fmt your repo. That's really funny, but I don't think the go community is ready for that level of humor yet, maybe one day.
