Paul Jolly 240a8bfde1 cmd/stringer: move away from using os.Args[0]
stringer's usage currently uses os.Args[0] to refer to the program name
as a defensive measure in case stringer is compiled and then run using a
name other than stringer, e.g. mystringer. However, the following lines
of the usage docs hardcode "stringer." So it seems this has little
benefit.

Indeed this style of using os.Args[0] can make the usage information of
stringer extremely ugly when stringer itself is invoked with an absolute
path:

Usage of /tmp/tmp.ahddh3ZjE7/.gobincache/golang.org/x/tools/@v/v0.0.0-20181030000716-a0a13e073c7b/golang.org/x/tools/cmd/stringer/stringer:
        stringer [flags] -type T [directory]
        stringer [flags] -type T files... # Must be a single package

...

Instead, opt for the simpler approach of hardcoding stringer throughout.

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.

Report Issues / Send Patches

This repository uses Gerrit for code changes. To learn how to submit changes to this repository, see https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html.

The main issue tracker for the tools repository is located at https://github.com/golang/go/issues. Prefix your issue with "x/tools/(your subdir):" in the subject line, so it is easy to find.
