gup - Update binaries installed by "go install" with goroutines.

gup demo

gup command update binaries installed by "go install" to the latest version. gup updates all binaries in parallel, so very fast.

It also provides subcommands for manipulating binaries under $GOPATH/bin ($GOBIN). It is a cross-platform software that runs on Windows, Mac and Linux.

gup has over 90% test coverage and is registered with go awesome. For golang users, gup is an easy-to-use command and I recommend it to everyone.
