### Automatic go.mod detection
**New in v6**: If neither `go-version` nor `go-version-file` is specified, the action will automatically look for a `go.mod` file in the repository root and use the Go version specified in it. This simplifies workflows for projects that already have a `go.mod` file.
```yaml
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v6
- uses: actions/setup-go@v6
# Automatically uses go.mod from repository root
- run: go version
```
For more usage examples, please refer to the section: [Using go-version input](docs/advanced-usage.md#using-the-go-version-input) of the [Advanced usage](docs/advanced-usage.md) guide.

If both the `go-version` and the `go-version-file` inputs are provided then the `go-version` input is used. The `.tool-versions` file supports version specifications in accordance with asdf standards, adhering to Semantic Versioning ([semver](https://semver.org)).
