for example go get saying: go: downloading github.com/jackc/pgx v3.6.2+incompatible and downloading much other stuff makes me think it's heavyweight (at least on the modcache). Why is it downloading v3 stuff when I explicitly stated v4 in my go get command? Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I just haven't grasped the module concept fully yet, I don't know. That's why I asked. As I said, I'm new to Go and just making my first steps beyond simple things. Cheers, Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
