The Go programming language
b8b48abe0f
cmd/api is a tool to prevent the Go developers from breaking the Go 1 API promise. It has no utility to end users and doesn't run on arbitrary packages (it's always been full of hacks for its bespoke type checker to work on the standard library) Robert's in-progress rewrite depends on the go.tools repo for go/types, so we won't be able to ship this tool later anyway. Just remove it from binary distributions. A future change to run.bash can conditionally build & run cmd/api, perhaps automatically fetching go/types if necessary. I assume people don't want to vendor go/types into a private gopath just for cmd/api. I will need help with run.bat. R=golang-dev, adg, dsymonds, rsc CC=golang-dev https://golang.org/cl/12316043 |

Binary Distribution Notes
If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set
the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go
directory (the one containing this README). You can omit the
variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild
from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install.html).
You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin
to your shell's path.
For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might
put the following in your .profile:
export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
See doc/install.html for more details.
