Subject: cmd/go/internal/modfetch/codehost: replace a dubious call to semver.Max
X-Git-Tag: go1.14rc1~218
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.cypherpunks.su/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3f51350c706c8ff663f12867bcfec98aa9fc46bf;p=gostls13.git

cmd/go/internal/modfetch/codehost: replace a dubious call to semver.Max

The documentation for RecentTag indicates that it returns an actual
tag, not a canonicalized prefix+version blob equivalent to a tag,
so the canonicalization due to semver.Max seems like a bug here.

Fortunately, RecentTag is not currently ever actually used as a tag,
so the removal of metadata does not result in a user-facing bug.
Nonetheless, it may be a subtle source of confusion for maintainers
in the future.

Updates #32700
