goenv global 1.20rc2 fails

[skaji]

Since #374, we cannot set RC go via goenv global or goenv local.

Steps to reproduce

❯ goenv install 1.20rc2
Downloading go1.20rc2.darwin-arm64.tar.gz...
-> go1.20rc2.darwin-arm64.tar.gz

❯ goenv global 1.20rc2
goenv: version '1.20rc2' not installed

❯ echo $?
1

My environment

• macos 14.5, arm64
• goenv 2.2.1

@reneleonhardt can you please assist?

I restored support for release candidates in local, global, install and installed, please review #392.

Please note:

• There are no tests yet
• install 1.20rc1 installs the latest release candidate rc2, like it does for other minor versions (1.22 installs 1.22.6)
• goenv supports only a fraction of release candidates (it doesn't sync them like final releases)
• goenv does not allow installing an arbitrary version (unknown to goenv hashsums in plugins/go-build/share/go-build)

I was thinking as a future feature and would make usage a lot more flexible, we add a going sync command. It will autogenerate the version files using the go API and only pick the ones relevant to your OS and Arch.

Thanks for looking into this.

Unfortunately, it seems that goenv global 1.20rc2 is still failing:

❯ goenv --version
goenv 2.2.3

❯ goenv install 1.20rc2

Thanks for letting us know. It would be worth writing a quick test to recreate the issue first and then trying to fix that.

A quick test would be:

diff --git test/goenv-global.bats test/goenv-global.bats
