gvm
Go Version Manager (gvm) enables seamless installing and swapping between Go versions with a single command. This tool manages a Go environment for the user by allowing a user to specify which Go version they wish to use and handling all of the steps to install and configure that Go version. GVM also supports installing Go from the official Golang master branch so that you can easily try the next version of Go without waiting for a pre release build. (by devnw)

Update Go version from CLI
However this is still a neat script OP! I was looking for something like this when installing Go for the first time and was contemplating between goenv, gvm, and asdf before settling on brew.

After struggling to install Go using asdf for vscode on macOS I decided to document the entire process
Ah neat. For ref: https://github.com/moovweb/gvm. Not sure how I never saw that one. I guess I just probably googled "update golang bash github" at some point a few years ago and went with it.

Do you miss .ruby_version while using GVM? I wrote a hook for that!
I've been using gvm for a while now to manage my Go versions. It's absolutely amazing, however, it's always lacked the ability to automatically create Go installations per repo like RVM does with .ruby_version.
