If we encounter `go list` errors when loading a user's package, we should try to see if they've encountered any of our common error cases. They are: 1) a user has GO111MODULE=off, but is outside of their GOPATH, and 2) a user is in module mode but doesn't have a go.mod file. Fortunately, go/packages does a great job handling edge cases so gopls will work well for most of them. The main issue will be unresolved imports. These show up in DepErrors in `go list`, so go/packages doesn't propagate them through to the list of errors. This will require changes to go/packages.

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
.
