Installation on Windows fails if gofish is already installed about gofish HOT 3 CLOSED

This should be a separate issue but I tried to download and install gofish, but Chrome thinks its harmful.

I've even uploaded the archives to Virus Total and one engine suspects Windows zip archive, but not other archives.

• Windows binary in zip
• Windows binary in tar
• Linux binary
• macOS binary

Can this not be made go getable?

Yeah so the first thing is definitely a bug in the PowerShell script. Feel like taking a crack at it?

That's interesting that it's just the zip archive that's considered unsafe. They're created the exact same process as the tarball as seen in make dist: https://github.com/fishworks/gofish/blob/master/Makefile#L31-L39

Gofish is go get able (go get -u github.com/fishworks/gofish/cmd/gofish/...), but I'd rather users actually use the release binaries or build from source using dep instead because

1. the release binaries have been guaranteed to be tested for quality assurance
2. I cannot guarantee that the dependencies gofish relies on will always work on master

go get IMO is a horrible, horrible release tool due to its nature of fetching everything off master.

If you'd like to build from source, there's the hacking guide which follows through the steps to build from source.

Wonder why they ever designed it that way. I'm no Go programmer but what about versioned branches?
