Hi! I build gocryptfs from source on macOS, and the instructions don't seem to work for me: If I run go get -d github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs, I don't have a src directory appear under GOPATH, only a pkg directory (and don't think that's meant to be equivalent to src). This is on macOS 11 (AKA Big Sur) with Go 1.16.2 installed from MacPorts (instead of Homebrew).

I don't understand much of anything about Go packaging, but https://blog.golang.org/go116-module-changes led me to try doing

GO111MODULE=auto go get -d GitHub.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs

and that did create GOPATH/src/github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs.

Do the instructions from source need to be updated?

Thanks for gocryptfs!

README: fix compile instructions for Go 1.13+
7e18ee6 
"go get -d" does not download to GOPATH/src anymore:
golang/go#31529

Use explicit "git clone" to the current directory as suggested
in golang/go#31529 (comment) .

Fixes #553
