The package github.com/pkg/errors is now in maintenance mode due to the existence of golang native error wrapping. The goal is to do that on a package-by-package basis, where everyone is welcome to contribute.

Conversion rules

• use the errors import in favor of github.com/pkg/errors
• convert errors.Errorf to fmt.Errorf
• convert errors.Wrap(err, "…") to fmt.Errorf("…: %w", err) and check that err != nil before
• convert errors.Wrapf(err, "… %s: %s", foo, bar) to fmt.Errorf("… %s: %s: %w", foo, bar err) and check that err != nil before
• prefer errors.New if no additional format is required
• convert errors.Cause to errors.Is checks
