Go get is a thin wrapper around git/hg/cvs/whatever. It's supposed to be used by developers, not end users. Note that your link is titled "How to write Go code". For distribution to end users just do whatever you'd do for a program written in C/C++/Java/Erlang/whatever. No need to rub your favorite programming language into your users' face constantly.

But yeah, there's a bunch of Go programmers (presumably those coming from Python or Ruby) that don't really seem to get that you don't need to put source code and a compiler onto your production servers.
