Hi Gophers, *Question:* Is there any way to include a readable verison of the source code of my program into the compiled Go binary, either in plain text, or the ability extract it somehow, with some go tooling or 3rd party tools?
*Background:* The reason for asking is that we are using Go to write scientific workflows with scipipe <http://scipipe.org>. This means we can compile our scientific workflows into static binaries for easier deployment and protecting against undocumented code changes that code make us loose track of the provenance ("complete track record") of the steps ... and potentially lead to flawed science ("shudder"). But with compiled binaries, we instead run into another problem of provenance: Allowing ourselves and others to inspect that a particular workflow binary actually does what it says. Thus, having a statically compiled binary with the source code included in some form, would be the best of two worlds.
