+  The <a href="/cmd/go/#hdr-Module_support"><code>GO111MODULE</code></a>
+  environment variable continues to default to <code>auto</code>, but
+  the <code>auto</code> setting now activates the module-aware mode of
+  the <code>go</code> command whenever the current working directory contains,
+  or is below a directory containing, a <code>go.mod</code> file — even if the
+  current directory is within <code>GOPATH/src</code>. This change simplifies
+  the migration of existing code within <code>GOPATH/src</code> and the ongoing
+  maintenance of module-aware packages alongside non-module-aware importers.
