README could have instructions on how to install a specific version of mage for sake of reproducible builds or corporate legal processes which may require strict versioning.

This is how I do it:

GO111MODULE=on go get github.com/magefile/mage@v1.9.0

If you want I can even make a PR, but I need to know what do you think of it.

There are version specific releases that you can download if you need to. That's even more locked down and reliable than using go get.

It could be useful to have more instructions for that purpose, I suppose. If you wanted to make the PR that's fine.

What do you mean by "more locked down" and "reliable"? What are the differences other than mage -version printing the version?

Downloading them manually is not so efficient especially for an automation tool 😄 I try to make some automation that would work for any OS + Docker. Maybe it would interest you: https://github.com/golang-templates/basic
