Hello, I would like to issue a request to unpublished my Go package. It's a test package that I published by mistake so I'd like to remove it if possible. Thanks! Here is the link of my repository where it's located: https://github.com/elmasrisaer/GoSDKTest

We want to remove the test package ( the one from this repo: https://github.com/elmasrisaer/GoSDKTest) in order to publish the correct version ( the one in this repo: https://github.com/Celitech/CelitechSDKGo) to not causing confusion for our clients. However, after publishing the correct package and waiting over an hour for it to be indexed, it still doesn't appear on go.dev.

Could this be happening because both the test and the correct packages use the same name? Thanks!

note that you need to pull the module through the go proxy for it to be indexed, it didn't look as if you did that.

We don't remove specific packages, especially when the module still exists. please use the retract directive.

Hello @seankhliao

We previously released https://github.com/elmasrisaer/GoSDKTest without pulling anything through the go proxy (it was indexed after only creating a release on GitHub)

For the 2nd point, if we want to remove the package completely, shall we remove the GitHub repository (complete cleanup), or will it still be there after deleting the repo, and should we use "retract " instead?

please advise
