From da8b50c83087897e2a8abef2d8909253f1fb4f23 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Matloob Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2025 11:25:14 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] cmd/doc: delete Users should not invoke "go tool doc" directly, but should instead run "go doc". Remove "cmd/doc" because it no longer invokes the "doc" tool but incorporates its logic directly.
