go-module-renamer

To rename a Go module path safely, use a tool that performs deterministic text replacement across go.mod, source imports, proto go_package, and Makefile references to ensure full consistency across the codebase.

The best way to preview Go module path changes is to run the renaming process in dry-run mode, which shows all planned text replacements and updates without modifying the actual files.

Rollback during a Go module migration works by utilizing built-in backup support that automatically restores the original go.mod, source imports, and project references if the renaming process fails or produces errors.

Yes, the Go module renamer handles proto go_package and Makefile updates by scanning and applying deterministic text replacements to all project references, ensuring no module paths are missed during migration.

Yes, you can perform a partial rename because the tool automatically detects the rename type, allowing you to update specific segments of the module path rather than replacing the entire path.

You need to automate Go module renaming during codebase migration, project restructuring, or when moving to a new repository to avoid tedious manual edits and prevent inconsistencies across long module paths.
