cobra.dev update required

➜ borzoi go get -u github.com/spf13/cobra/cobra
go: module github.com/spf13/cobra@upgrade found (v1.4.0), but does not contain package github.com/spf13/cobra/cobra

While trying to install cobra, i ran into the above error. The documentation should be fixed in the website so that it can be fixed correctly.
I realised I was able to do it running the below command :-

borzoi go get -u github.com/spf13/cobra/cobra@latest

Hence, the website must be updated.

Where are you seeing this? Our installing documentation has the correct command in this section: https://github.com/spf13/cobra#installing

go get -u github.com/spf13/cobra@latest

Also note that the cobra/cobra module no longer exists in this repository. It has moved to https://github.com/spf13/cobra-cli

I wanted to reference, https://cobra.dev/.

FTR, #1245 is waiting for #1428 to be merged.

The Cobra project currently lacks enough contributors to adequately respond to all issues. This bot triages issues and PRs according to the following rules:

• After 60d of inactivity, lifecycle/stale is applied. - After 30d of inactivity since lifecycle/stale was applied, lifecycle/rotten is applied and the issue is closed.
  You can:
• Make a comment to remove the stale label and show your support. The 60 days reset. - If an issue has lifecycle/rotten and is closed, comment and ask maintainers if they'd be interseted in reopening

this is probably worth reopening

[umarcor]

FTR, I just rebased #1428 to remove merge conflicts.

I reviewed it, though since I don't have write privileges, I'm not sure it matters. Thanks @umarcor

@theishanbh looks like a PR was merged for this. Can we close this issue?

[nickmcostello]

@tlarnold10 the website still has the incorrect install command.

Hey 👋 Sorry if this is just spam but I want to 'bump' this as I found this issue after googling go: module github.com/spf13/cobra@upgrade found (v1.8.1), but does not contain package github.com/spf13/cobra/cobra after following the instructions on the website. Would be great if this could be updated.

[alewtschuk]

Also bumping this. Website still has the incorrect information as of 8/27/2024.

The cobra.dev site is wildly out of date: it was a static site created by spf13 and we had planned to move it to a GitHub actions site we maintain: #1245 but that thread has gone cold over the last few years.

I'd recommend relying on the in code comments of the library or .md files in this repo for documentation until we have a better story for docs.

@jpmcb thanks for the update. I have some free time in the evenings/weekends, would picking up #1245 be the best option of getting this issue resolved? If not - if I can help let me know how I can reach out and I will.
