What do you suggest as an alternative for representing literal values, @pastelmind? After 3.8, `ast.parse()` does not produce `ast.Num()` or `ast.String()` etc. This seems fixable directly in astunparse instead -...

I am generating ASTs directly, not sourced from code, for example here: https://github.com/spenczar/avroc/blob/main/avroc/codegen/write.py#L289 I am compiling Avro data schema definitions into code objects. I use astunparse to populate the Python...

`retool` really isn't prepared for the brave new world of Go modules and GOPATH-less workflows. I'm not sure we can remedy this issue, since it goes quite deep into how...

Yes, this sounds like a welcome improvement, especially if the metadata is just informational. Go for it - feel free to make a PR.

This is a pretty reasonable idea, yes. It seems straightforward to implement, as well. I like it.

Can we perhaps narrow this to only being about build tags, rather than arbitrary arguments? That's a lot simpler to reason about.

Hm, could you say more about what happened here? I'm not sure how to reproduce this, exactly.

Sure, I'm comfortable with this. The only reason it isn't in place today is that I didn't have a good reason to add it. `-config-file` seems like a suitable name.

Right, this is because we *immediately* checkout out the version we want of a particular binary, right after `go get`-ing it. We might need to first `go get` each binary,...

Hm, I don't fully follow that line of thought. Discarding additional information seems like the point of `errors.Cause`. I sometimes write errors that implement the `causer` interface when I want...
