Go Patterns?

I came across a repository on github that consolidated simple examples exhibiting design patterns in Go. In the beginning I thought that was a great resource, but after a while I got a bit confused. You will find a list of patterns like creational, structural, behavioural, synchronization, concurrency, messaging, stability, profiling, idioms and anti-patterns. You find patterns like Abstract Factory, Singleton, Bridge, Decorator, Mutex, Semaphore, Coroutines, and many more. My favourites are synchronization and concurrency.
