$ gup update subaru gup ubume
gup:INFO : update all binary under $GOPATH/bin or $GOBIN

list subcommand print command information under $GOPATH/bin or $GOBIN. The output information is the command name, package path, and command version. 

Remove the specified binary

If you want to remove a command under $GOPATH/bin or $GOBIN, use the remove subcommand. The remove subcommand asks if you want to remove it before removing it.

$ gup remove subaru gal ubume
gup:CHECK: remove /home/nao/.go/bin/subaru? [Y/n] Y
gup:INFO : removed /home/nao/.go/bin/subaru
gup:CHECK: remove /home/nao/.go/bin/gal? [Y/n] n
gup:INFO : cancel removal /home/nao/.go/bin/gal
gup:CHECK: remove /home/nao/.go/bin/ubume? [Y/n] Y
gup:INFO : removed /home/nao/.go/bin/ubume

If you want to force the removal, use the --force option.

$ gup remove --force gal
gup:INFO : removed /home/nao/.go/bin/gal

Export／Import subcommand

You use the export／import subcommand if you want to install the same golang binaries across multiple systems. By default, export-subcommand exports the file to $HOME/.config/gup/gup.conf. After you have placed gup.conf in the same path hierarchy on another system, you execute import-subcommand. gup start the installation according to the contents of gup.conf.

※ Environmet A (e.g. ubuntu)
$ gup export
gup:INFO: Export /home/nao/.config/gup/gup.conf

※ Environmet B (e.g. debian)
$ ls /home/nao/.config/gup/gup.conf
/home/nao/.config/gup/gup.conf
$ gup import
