Invoke gimme -k or gimme --known to have Gimme report the versions which can be installed; invoking gimme stable installs the version which the Go Maintainers have declared to be stable, and gimme oldstable installs the last stable release one minor version before the current stable. Both of these involve making network requests to retrieve this information, although the --known output is cached. (Use --force-known-update to ignore the cache). The stable request retrieves and reports that. The oldstable request does the same and downgrades it by one minor version. The known request retrieves and parses the page to find releases. This is not the same as the location where the images are retrieved from, thus it's possible for known to know about more or fewer versions than are actually available. We proceed on the basis that the documented releases are suitable and undocumented releases no longer are. This known list also includes any versions locally known.
