Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

go1.7 linux/amd64

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

GOARCH="amd64"
GOHOSTARCH="amd64"
GOHOSTOS="linux"

What did you do?

gorename tool does not update the comment associated to the renamed symbol. As comment are used for documentation and are validated by go linter, refactoring the code with gorename often let the code in something that compile but that dose not follow the rules for comments.

let's consider the following program:

package main

// MyFunc documenation
func MyFunc() {}

func main() {
        MyFunc()
}

If we rename 'MyFunc' the associated comment will not be update:

> gorename -from "test.MyFunc" -to "NewFunc" -d

@@ -1,8 +1,8 @@
 package pkg
 
 // MyFunc documenation
-func MyFunc() {}
+func NewFunc() {}
 
 func main() {
-       MyFunc()
+       NewFunc()
 }

What did you expect to see? What I would like to see?

Would be good if gorename can also take care of updating the comments:

@quentinmit thanks for your code. I did not know about the "PathEnclosingInterval(pos, pos)" function, it clearly makes a better code that what I initially proposed.
