I use Ansible to manage my entire OS setup, with a playbook that installs all necessary software, sets up my dotfiles, and configures my system. This playbook can be run on a fresh installation of my OS and have my system set up exactly how I like it. Recently, I shifted from the Linux Arch AUR to go install for Go binaries, as it felt simpler and ensured up-to-date dependencies - without having to depend on the authors creating Arch AUR packaging for it. However, I still couldn’t find a way to pin packages to specific GitHub tags/releases. To solve this, I created a simple Ansible playbook to install Go binaries directly from GitHub releases, allowing me to pin and auto update the version of the Go binaries I want to install.
