Since commits 99fac80 and ec919d8 (PR #418) it's clear that
getHomeDiris only used on Windows.Ironically,
$HOMEis not used on Windows (instead, it's%USERPROFILE%), so the code always falls back to user.Current, which internally uses os.UserHomeDir to fill inHomeDir.So, it is both simpler and more correct to use os.UserHomeDir directly. Fall back to "/" in case of an error like the previous implementation did.
