Summary of Changes

Hello, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request enhances the Go linting setup by providing greater flexibility for users to manage their golangci-lint versions. By introducing an environment variable, it allows for explicit control over the linter's version, which can be crucial for maintaining consistent build environments or testing against specific linter releases, without hardcoding the version in the script.

Highlights

• Configurable golangci-lint version: Introduced the GOLANGCI_LINT_VERSION environment variable, allowing users to specify a particular version of golangci-lint to be used during linting, defaulting to latest if not set.
• Documentation update: Updated the go/README.md to document the newly added GOLANGCI_LINT_VERSION environment variable.

🧠 New Feature in Public Preview: You can now enable Memory to help Gemini Code Assist learn from your team's feedback. This makes future code reviews more consistent and personalized to your project's style. Click here to enable Memory in your admin console.

Changelog

• go/README.md
  • Added documentation for GOLANGCI_LINT_VERSION.
• go/lint-project.sh
  • Modified golangci_version variable to read from GOLANGCI_LINT_VERSION environment variable, with a fallback to latest.

Code Review

This pull request introduces the ability to override the golangci-lint version using the GOLANGCI_LINT_VERSION environment variable, defaulting to latest if not set. The implementation in go/lint-project.sh is correct and follows best practices. I've added one suggestion to the README.md file to improve documentation consistency.
