create a temporary copy of generator for applying options This follows the principle of least surprise - when you pass options to a function call, you expect them to apply only to that call, not permanently mutate the object

WalkthroughThis pull request updates the project's CI/CD tooling and Go development environment. It bumps the supported Go version to 1.25 in CI, updates linting and pre-commit hook versions, simplifies the dependabot configuration, and refactors the generator to apply options to a copy rather than mutating the original instance.

Hey - I've found 1 issue, and left some high level feedback:
- In
nameGenerator.Generate, instead of manually cloning the struct intogen, consider changing the receiver to a value receiver (or adding aclone()helper) so options are applied to a copy more idiomatically and without manual field-by-field copying. - The new
pre-commit-golangconfiguration enables many*-modand*-repohooks (build, test, vet, lint, fmt, imports); you may want to trim this set to only the hooks that add value to keep pre-commit runs fast and avoid redundant checks.

- In `nameGenerator.Generate`, instead of manually cloning the struct into `gen`, consider changing the receiver to a value receiver (or adding a `clone()` helper) so options are applied to a copy more idiomatically and without manual field-by-field copying.
- The new `pre-commit-golang` configuration enables many `*-mod` and `*-repo` hooks (build, test, vet, lint, fmt, imports); you may want to trim this set to only the hooks that add value to keep pre-commit runs fast and avoid redundant checks.

**suggestion (bug_risk):** Copying individual fields risks missing new fields on nameGenerator and breaking Generate behavior.
Constructing `gen` with an explicit field list means any future fields added to `nameGenerator` (e.g., RNG, config, or internal state) won’t be copied, and `Generate` may behave incorrectly in subtle ways. Instead, shallow-copy the struct and apply options on that copy, for example:
```go
func (namegen *nameGenerator) Generate(options ...Options) string {
gen := *namegen
gptr := &gen
for _, option := range options {
option(gptr)
}
// use gptr (or gen) below
}
```
This preserves non-mutating behavior while keeping all current and future fields intact.
Suggested implementation:
```golang
}
func (namegen *nameGenerator) Generate(options ...Options) string {
gen := *namegen
gptr := &gen
for _, option := range options {
option(gptr)
```
1. Ensure the remainder of the `Generate` function uses `gptr` (or `gen`) consistently for any fields it reads or methods it calls, rather than `namegen`, if the intent is to work on the per-call copy.
2. If `Generate` currently refers to the old `gen` variable in code not shown in the snippet, update those references to `gptr` (or `gen`) according to whether a pointer or value receiver is required.

232-243: Critical: GenerateMultiple still mutates the original generator, creating API inconsistency.While
Generatenow uses a copy-on-write pattern (lines 193-199),GenerateMultiplestill mutates the original generator at lines 233-235. This creates inconsistent behavior:// Case 1: Generate is non-mutating ✓ gen := NewGenerator() name := gen.Generate(WithGender(Male)) // gen is unchanged // Case 2: GenerateMultiple is mutating ✗ gen := NewGenerator() names := gen.GenerateMultiple(10, WithGender(Male)) // gen is now mutated with Male genderThis violates the functional options pattern and contradicts the PR's stated objective to "fix functional option behavior by creating a temporary copy."
🔎 Proposed fix to align GenerateMultiple with Generate's copy-on-write pattern
func (namegen *nameGenerator) GenerateMultiple(count int, options ...Options) []string { + gen := &nameGenerator{ + gender: namegen.gender, + prefix: namegen.prefix, + suffix: namegen.suffix, + lenOfRandomString: namegen.lenOfRandomString, + separator: namegen.separator, + } + for _, option := range options { - option(namegen) + option(gen) } names := make([]string, count) for i := 0; i < count; i++ { - names[i] = namegen.Generate() + names[i] = gen.Generate() } return names }

dnephin/pre-commit-golangtotekwizely/pre-commit-golangand pinned tov1.0.0-rc.4(a release candidate). While the expanded hook set (12 hooks vs 2) significantly improves Go tooling coverage, using an RC version in production may introduce instability or breaking changes before the stable v1.0.0 release.Verify whether a stable version is available:

58-58: LGTM: Go version update aligns with matrix expansion.The testing job now uses Go 1.25, which is consistent with the matrix addition at line 32. This ensures the CI tests against the latest version.
61-63: LGTM: Pinning golangci-lint version eliminates nondeterminism.Excellent change to pin the golangci-lint version instead of using "latest". This ensures reproducible CI builds and prevents unexpected breakage from new linter versions.
32-32: Go 1.25 is available and properly added to the test matrix.Go 1.25 was released in August 2025, and Go 1.25.5 was released on December 2, 2025, confirming multiple stable patch versions are available with actions/setup-go@v6. The test matrix addition is appropriate.

193-228: LGTM: Copy-on-write pattern correctly implemented in Generate.The refactor creates a local copy of the generator state and applies options to the copy rather than mutating the receiver. This ensures that calling
Generatewith options does not modify the original generator instance.However, note that
GenerateMultiple(lines 232-243) still mutates the original generator, creating an API inconsistency (see separate comment).
