Awesome, thanks. At a previous company, we used to take months/years to upgrade to a new Go version, so it's nice that you guys are eating your own dog food so quickly. :-)
For now, I've removed the leading-dash test file and released a new patch version. When I reinstate it I may end up putting that file in a subdirectory in any case, just because it's weird to have a file named "-ftest" in the repo's root. -Ben On Thu, Aug 19, 2021 at 11:17 AM Jay Conrod <jaycon...@google.com> wrote: > You're exactly right, the proxy is still in the process of migrating to Go > 1.17.
