bug: asdf global golang latest doesn't work

[scarf005]

Describe the Bug

I'm unable to make golang plugin to work despite installing it and reshimming.
similar to #914, but reshim doesn't work at all.

Steps to Reproduce

$ asdf plugin-add golang
Plugin named golang already added
$ asdf install golang latest
golang 1.23.1 is already installed
$ asdf global golang latest
$ asdf reshim golang
$ asdf reshim
$ cat ~/.tool-versions 
dprint 0.47.2
golang 1.23.1
$  fd --hidden .tool-versions
.tool-versions
repo/etc/obs_script/.tool-versions
repo/etc/stackflow/.tool-versions
repo/etc/one-time-contribution/ts-rest-hono/.tool-versions
repo/etc/ultraytics/.tool-versions
$ asdf current
direnv          2.32.3          Not installed. Run "asdf install direnv 2.32.3"
golang          1.21.6          Not installed. Run "asdf install golang 1.21.6"
python          3.12.4          Not installed. Run "asdf install python 3.12.4" 

Expected Behaviour

• installing plugin works.
• ~/.tool-versions (go 1.23.6) is respected.

Actual Behaviour

$ go
No preset version installed for command go
Please install a version by running one of the following:

asdf install golang 1.21.6

or add one of the following versions in your config file at /run/media/home/scarf/.tool-versions
golang 1.23.1

it attempts to read golang 1.21.6 despite global configured to load 1.23.6.

It seems, when you ran the go command in your "Actual Behaviour" section, you were in a directory under /run/media/home/scarf as your error shows add one of the following versions in your config file at /run/media/home/scarf/.tool-versions. Emphasis on the directory.

The version suggested to be installed also matches what your asdf current output shows.

It is hard to tell as your reproduction does not include your current working directory where all these commands were executed.

So I would guess, the directory you were in was resolving to the /run/media/home/scarf/.tool-verisons file, which had golang 1.21.6 in it, but that version was not installed.

It will not "fallback" to the "global" version if there is a specific version defined in a closer .tool-version file for your current working directory.

Eg:

+ /run/media/home
+-- .tool-verions       << has golang 1.23.1
+-- /scarf
    +-- .tool-verisons  << has golang 1.21.6
    +-- /some
        +-- /other
            +-- /dir    << current working directory

asdf just walks up to the root directory from the current working directory, with definitions closer to the current working directory taking precedence.

So it would use 1.21.6 as it is the closest version definition for golang.

Are you able to re-test with this information, or try a reproduction where you show any directories and cds? Thanks
