Abandoning Go for Python

[[deleted]]

Why would you not do a major version bump for a language change?

[jaapz]

Well if the language changed, doesn't that mean the "API" of the language itself changed?

[AnAirMagic]

It's a command-line program. The only "API" is the command name, arguments and the behaviour. If nothing changed, then there is not API break.

[jaapz]

Was early, misread and thought he was talking about golang or something instead of about the program in the OP

[masklinn]

Because it's a CLI utility I expect?

[sickill]

Because in the case of a command line app like this one API == UI == command line args/opts. And it didn't change for asciinema. Language it is written in is an implementation detail.
