## Caching dependency files and build outputs: | ||
|
||
The action has a built-in functionality for caching and restoring go modules and build outputs. It uses [actions/cache](https://github.com/actions/cache) under the hood but requires less configuration settings. The `cache` input is optional, and caching is turned off by default. | ||

The `cache` input is optional, and caching is turned on by default. | ||
|
||
The action defaults to search for the dependency file - go.sum in the repository root, and uses its hash as a part of the cache key. Use `cache-dependency-path` input for cases when multiple dependency files are used, or they are located in different subdirectories. | ||

|
||
**Caching without specifying dependency file path** | ||

## Getting go version from the go.mod file | ||
|
||
The `go-version-file` input accepts a path to a `go.mod` file or a `go.work` file that contains the version of Go to be used by a project. As the `go.mod` file contains only major and minor (e.g. 1.18) tags, the action will search for the latest available patch version sequentially in the runner's directory with the cached tools, in the [versions-manifest.json](https://github.com/actions/go-versions/blob/main/versions-manifest.json) file or at the go servers. | ||

## Using `setup-go` on GHES | ||
|
||
`setup-go` comes pre-installed on the appliance with GHES if Actions is enabled. When dynamically downloading Go distributions, `setup-go` downloads distributions from [`actions/go-versions`](https://github.com/actions/go-versions) on github.com (outside of the appliance). These calls to `actions/go-versions` are made via unauthenticated requests, which are limited to [60 requests per hour per IP](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/overview/resources-in-the-rest-api#rate-limiting). If more requests are made within the time frame, then you will start to see rate-limit errors during downloading that looks like: `##[error]API rate limit exceeded for...`. After that error the action will try to download versions directly from https://storage.googleapis.com/golang, but it also can have rate limit so it's better to put token. | ||
