# Go Tools
This subrepository holds the source for various packages and tools that support the Go programming language.
Some of the tools, `godoc` and `vet` for example, are included in binary Go distributions.
Others, including the Go `guru` and the test coverage tool, can be fetched with `go get`.
Packages include a type-checker for Go and an implementation of the Static Single Assignment form (SSA) representation for Go programs.
## Download/Install
The easiest way to install is to run `go get -u golang.org/x/tools/...`. You can also manually git clone the repository to `$GOPATH/src/golang.org/x/tools`.
