Description

@findleyr

As discovered in CL 380555, some of our dependencies no longer support building with Go 1.12. This is to be expected -- 1.12 was a long time ago.

#50825 outlines a long-term plan to remove support for building gopls at legacy Go versions, but in the meantime we need to to mark [email protected] as the final release supporting being built by Go 1.12. Fortunately, this is consistent with our stated support for the four latest major Go versions.

Action items:

  • check with the VS Code team to see if there's anything we can do to help users avoid breakage when upgrading gopls from VS Code (CC @hyangah @suzmue)
  • document our new compatibility matrix.
  • update the v0.7.5 release notes
  • remove Kokoro 1.12 CI
  • upgrade our dependencies, thus breaking the 1.12 build
