# Directory GOCACHE

This directory contains the GOCACHE and GOMODCACHE we use when
statically compiling Linux binaries using Docker.

If you keep the content of this directory, subsequent builds will be
faster. You will notice this especially for builds using qemu-user-static
to build for different architectures.
fix: attempt to make linux builds faster (#911) This work aims to make Linux builds faster to make https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2249 more convenient. Since those builds runs inside Docker, the problem to solve here is to save/restore the Go caches notwithstanding Docker. Because Docker runs as root, we need to modify the build a bit to run as a normal user. Otherwise, we will not be able to save the Go cache using actions/cache@v3. (Other approaches such as using `sudo` are possible but running the build as an unprivileged user actually looks cleaner, so I chose to do that.) While there, add a `.editorconfig`. 2022-08-30 21:13:33 +02:00			`# Directory GOCACHE`
