Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes.

What did you do?

Initial state:

-- go.mod --
module example.com

go 1.16
-- main.go --
package main

import "fmt"

type T struct{}

func (x *T) String() string {
	return fmt.Sprintf("%T{}", x)
}

func (x *T) Clone() *T {
	y := new(T)
	*y = *x
	return y
}

func main() {}

1. emacs -nw main.go
2. Move the point to the first method receiver (main.go:7:6).
3. M-x eglot-rename
4. Enter a new name (such as t) for the method receiver.

What did you expect to see?

Per http://golang.org/wiki/CodeReviewComments#receiver-names:

Be consistent, too: if you call the receiver "c" in one method, don't call it "cl" in another.

Since the file already satisfied that consistency rule before the rename, I expect it to satisfy that rule after the rename, too: all of the method receivers should have been renamed to the new name entered in step (4).

What did you see instead?

Only the receiver for the one method was renamed.

[muirdm]

Some questions:

1. If the receiver names aren't currently consistent, should we rename them all to be consistent?
2. If we can't rename a receiver because the new name would conflict with another name in the method body, should we fail the entire rename operation or rename as many receivers as we can?

[mattheusv]

From a user perspective, I think it's better to rename even if the receiver names are not consistent at the moment, and rename as many receivers as possible.

[jmalloc]

Some preferences from someone who just created a dupe of this issue 🤦

2. If we can't rename a receiver because the new name would conflict with another name in the method body, should we fail the entire rename operation or rename as many receivers as we can?

Fail the entire rename, so you can evaluate the conflict and decide if you still think the new receiver name is appropriate.

1. If the receiver names aren't currently consistent, should we rename them all to be consistent?

Rename them all, only if the issue above did not occur.
