The language analysis does not show any % for Golang :D

Yeah, that part is frustrating. It picks up the PowerShell script in one of the sub directories and marks the whole project as such.

That happened to a Go repo of mine once as well (except it was a python script causing the misidentification). I fixed it by adding a gitattributes file to the repo. Here it is:

Why is the fix to tell Github that py files are Go? I would have expected the fix to be to tell it that go files are Go instead, no?

I would guess, the real fix is to improve linguist, the Ruby gem GitHub uses to determine the programming language. Everything else is a workaround.
