Hi,
I'm the author of shfmt, which was recently added to the Community repo: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/shfmt/
As part of the same "shell tooling" project, I'm now working on a second tool called "gosh". You can see both here: https://github.com/mvdan/sh/tree/master/cmd
It seems like the name is mostly free. The only official package providing /usr/bin/gosh is "gauche", but being Scheme, I doubt many people will run into that conflict.
This package hasn't seen a real update in three years, and the upstream project seems like it stalled in early 2015. I was wondering if you could free up this package name in the AUR, so that I may use it to package my shell tool.
The command name in my project first appeared in early 2017, so this isn't a last-minute attempt to take over someone else's package :) I hope it doesn't seem that way.
Thanks!
