How to get licenses of just built package about go-licenses HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @BastianZim, just sharing my guesses first:

1. in the environment, can you build the same go package? go-licenses must be run in an environment with full go development env and dependencies are downloaded (go mod download)
2. Is the root package "github.com/mozilla/sops" buildable as a binary? If not, you might want to choose between all subpackages "github.com/mozilla/sops/..." or specify the package of the built go binary explicitly "github.com/mozilla/sops/cmd/some-cli".

from go-licenses.

2. And additionally, the docs include / before the folder where the output is stored. Is that OS-specific, or is that correctly translated for Win? Ref: https://github.com/google/go-licenses#complying-with-license-terms

Yes, that's OS-specific. I'm not sure whether go-licenses work properly in windows, recommend reporting a separate issue if you hit any problems.

FYI, I just revamped documentation in #111, if you still have anything unclear.

Working now with the new docs, thanks!
