Files in ~/go/VERSION/pkg not user writable

[jlec]

For some strange reason files in ~/go/VERSION/pkg are not user writable.

➜  ll ~/go/1.23.4/pkg/mod/sigs.k8s.io/yaml\@v1.4.0/LICENSE
.r--r--r--@ 16k justin  7 Dec 09:23 /Users/justin/go/1.23.4/pkg/mod/sigs.k8s.io/[email protected]/LICENSE

is this by design and if so why? If not, can we make them user writable

This is a design of golang itself. Files downloaded by go mod are read only. You can modify the permissions yourself or add a replace line in your go mod file to tell it to point to a modified version of the code.
