golines archive and fork

[ldez]

Hello @mckern,

I'm the core maintainer of golangci-lint.

I show you will probably archive this repository.

As of late 2024, segmentio/golines has functionally been in maintenance mode, and several dependencies appear to be similarly unmaintained.
At some point in Q4 2025, this repository will be archived unless active maintainership can be found within Twilio Segment.
The code will remain available, and the terms of the license will not be changed.

We are using golines as a formatter inside golangci-lint.

For now, we have a partial fork to use it as a library: I removed the code related to the CLI, graph, and debug.

Based on the text inside the readme, I think you don't want to transfer the repository.

As we are using it, we can maintain a fork.

I already created a complete fork, I'm discussing this here: golangci/golangci-lint#6091

I already made significant changes and improvements (but non-breaking) to golines:

• Project structure
• Tests
• CLI performance
• bug fixes
• ...

If this repository is archived, and if you want, I would like to propose to "bless" our fork inside your readme before archiving it.

WDYT?

Hey, just setting expectations and acknowledging this -- I saw it but there's some conversations I have to have internally about it. Not sure when I'll be able to get back to it but I will.
