.SH NAME
go-version \- print the build information for Go executables
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B go version
.RB [ \-m ]
.RB [ \-v ]
.RI [ "file ..." ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Go version reports the Go version used to build each of the named
executable files.
.P
If no files are named on the command line, go version prints its own
version information.
.P
If a directory is named, go version walks that directory, recursively,
looking for recognized Go binaries and reporting their versions.
By default, go version does not report unrecognized files found
during a directory scan. The \-v flag causes it to report unrecognized files.
.P
The \-m flag causes go version to print each executable's embedded
module version information, when available. In the output, the module
information consists of multiple lines following the version line, each
indented by a leading tab character.
