Description
Prefer using bytes.Equal for checking equality of two byte slices instead of
bytes.Compare.
Instead of using bytes.Compare to check whether two byte slices are equal,
the shorthand bytes.Equal, created explicitly for checking equality, could
be used.
Bad practice
if bytes.Compare(x, y) == 0 {}
Recommended
if bytes.Equal(x, y) {}
