Up to now, I used a shell pipeline to find all packages that include either go-package.mk or go-module.mk and gave that to the revbump tool. The new tool only supports buildlink3 dependencies.

What would be the best criterion - including lang/go/version.mk?

Are you up for adding it or would you prefer me to?
