The documentation for the go command appears in doc.go and then again in various files,
plus appendices in package testing and package go/build. It's unwieldy to maintain and
hard for users to think of where to look for each question. It would be nice to tidy
this up at some point.

Comment 1:

There is mkdoc.sh in the cmd/go directory to address the duplication, but the scattering
of information like build tags and testing flags is still an issue. Renaming the issue.

I plan to do this, but probably not until 1.14 or later.
