+Fix finds Go programs that use old APIs and rewrites them to use
+newer ones.  After you update to a new Go release, fix helps make
+the necessary changes to your programs.
+
+Usage:
+	go tool fix [-r name,...] [path ...]
+
+Without an explicit path, fix reads standard input and writes the
+result to standard output.
+
+If the named path is a file, fix rewrites the named files in place.
+If the named path is a directory, fix rewrites all .go files in that
+directory tree.  When fix rewrites a file, it prints a line to standard
+error giving the name of the file and the rewrite applied.
+
+If the -diff flag is set, no files are rewritten. Instead fix prints
+the differences a rewrite would introduce.
+
+The -r flag restricts the set of rewrites considered to those in the
+named list.  By default fix considers all known rewrites.  Fix's
+rewrites are idempotent, so that it is safe to apply fix to updated
+or partially updated code even without using the -r flag.
+
+Fix prints the full list of fixes it can apply in its help output;
+to see them, run go tool fix -?.
+
+Fix does not make backup copies of the files that it edits.
+Instead, use a version control system's ``diff'' functionality to inspect
+the changes that fix makes before committing them.
