Milestone
What version of Go are you using (
go version
)?golang/website#24
Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?
Yes.
What operating system and processor architecture are you using (
go env
)?N/A
What did you do?
The download of a Go release redirects to https://dl.google.com/go but the download of the same release's sh256 checksum does not.
For example:
The sha256 URL is available at https://dl.google.com/go by appending
.sha256
to the end of a release:To summarize,
curl https://golang.org/dl/go1.15.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz -> https://dl.google.com/go/go1.15.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
curl https://golang.org/dl/go1.15.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz.sha256 -> curl https://dl.google.com/go/go1.15.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz.sha256
curl https://dl.google.com/go/go1.15.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
curl https://dl.google.com/go/go1.15.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz.sha256
What did you expect to see?
It would be nice that a release's sha256 can be redirected from https://golang.org/dl to https://dl.google.com/go, the same as its corresponding release. This makes the download of a release and its checksum both accessible from https://golang.org/dl.
What did you see instead?
The download of a release's checksum is not possible from the host https://golang.org/dl.
