Every time I run "go get" it doesn't actually put the package into the src folder of my go path. I've tried reinstalling go from homebrew and still nothing.

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

$ go version
1.16

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes

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

What did you do?

Nothing... just coming back to try my hand at go development after a small hiatus.

What did you expect to see?

When I run go get, it puts the package in my GOPATH src folder

What did you see instead?

No package being downloaded to src

(Welcome back! 😄)

The go command is working as expected. Take a look at https://golang.org/doc/go1.16#go-command to understand the change you're seeing. I suggest also taking a look at https://golang.org/doc/tutorial/.

I'll close this since it's not a bug, but please feel free to use https://golang.org/wiki/Questions if you run into any questions.
