I'm currently quite unfamiliar with golang. As an exercise to help me onboard onto golang, and as a proof-of-concept to see if golang is a viable substitute for Python as a scripting language, I decided to port my delete_dotfile_symlinks to golang. In the process, renamed ./python -> ./scripts, which is a more accommodating name for a directory.

| // Find and delete all symlinks to the dotfiles defined in $BRIEFCASE.
 | |
| //
 | |
| // Oftentimes I corrupt the state of my dotfiles. The intention with this script
 | |
| // is to write some tooling to help me better manage my dotfile cleanliness. An
 | |
| // example workflow might look like:
 | |
| //
 | |
| // ```shell
 | |
| // > go run delete_dotfile_symlinks.go --audit
 | |
| // > go run delete_dotfile_symlinks.go --seriously
 | |
| // > cd ..
 | |
| // > make install
 | |
| // ```
 | |
| //
 | |
| // Outstanding TODOs:
 | |
| // - Package this with <depot>buildGo.nix.
 | |
| // - How can this be run as script without `go run`? She-bang at the top?
 | |
| // - See TODOs within this package.
