Safe delete
GoLand lets you use the Safe Delete refactoring to remove files from the source code safely. Before GoLand deletes a file, it searches for usages and if they are found, GoLand lets you check them to make necessary adjustments.

Select
from the main or context menu or press Alt+Delete.In the dialog that opens, select necessary options and click OK.
