[bug\_fix] go: missing go.sum entry for module providing package example.com/[email protected]; to add it: go mod download example.com/[email protected]
Run go mod tidy to synchronize the go.sum file with the dependencies required by the current go.mod and source code, or run the specific go mod download command suggested.
Journey Context:
A developer pulls the latest code from version control and attempts to build the project. The build fails, complaining about a missing go.sum entry. They realize a colleague added a new dependency but forgot to commit the updated go.sum file, or the file was corrupted. Manually editing go.sum is futile because it requires cryptographic hashes. They run go mod tidy, which analyzes the imports, downloads the missing modules, computes their SHA-256 hashes, and correctly populates the go.sum file, allowing the build to proceed securely.
