Prefer this over the version from the `go` directive. Per the docs[1]
> The toolchain line declares a suggested toolchain to use with the
module or workspace
It seems reasonable to use this, since running this action in a
directory containing a `go.mod` (or `go.work`) suggests the user is
wishing to work _with the module or workspace_.
See (TODO link issue)
Force `go` to always use the local toolchain (i.e. the one the one that
shipped with the go command being run) via setting the `GOTOOLCHAIN`
environment variable to `local`[1]:
> When GOTOOLCHAIN is set to local, the go command always runs the
bundled Go toolchain.
This is how things are setup in the official Docker images (e.g.[2], see
also the discussion around that change[3]). The motivation behind this
is to:
* Reduce duplicate work, the action will install a version of Go, a
toolchain will be detected, the toolchain will be detected and then
another version of Go installed
* Avoid Unexpected behaviour: if you specify this action runs with some Go
version (e.g. `1.21.0`) but your go.mod contains a `toolchain` or `go`
directive for a newer version (e.g. `1.22.0`) then, without any other
configuration/environment setup, any go commands will be run using go
`1.22.0`
* TODO: link image
This will be a **breaking change** for some workflows. Given a `go.mod`
like:
module proj
go 1.22.0
Then running any `go` command, e.g. `go mod tidy`, in an environment
where only go versions before `1.22.0` were installed would previously
trigger a toolchain download of Go `1.22.0` and that version being used
to execute the command. With this change the above would error out with
something like:
> go: go.mod requires go >= 1.22.0 (running go 1.21.7;
GOTOOLCHAIN=local)

This workflow file publishes new action releases to the immutable action package of the same name as this repo.
This is part of the Immutable Actions project which is not yet fully released to the public. First party actions like this one are part of our initial testing of this feature.
