Go项目的目录结构正确吗？

Question

I'm relatively new to Go and I've recently created a project that's going up on GitHub. I've tried to follow guides but there's a pressing question of why my binaries end up in src/?

My layout is like this:

ssm/ - Name of project
    LICENSE
    README.md
    src/ - Source Code
        files.go - All my source code is here.
        src - The compiled binary ends up here
    bin/ - Binaries

I set my $GOPATH to ~/Documents/Programming/Go/. From my gopath, I can't type go build ssm because it cannot find package. If I cd into the directory, it complains it can't load package: package .: no Go source files.

I have to actually go into src and compile there, which means the binary isn't in bin/.

What am I doing wrong?

See https://code.google.com/p/go-wiki/wiki/GithubCodeLayout

To be compatible with go get, your project's package name needs to be fully-qualified under the github.com domain:

$GOPATH/
    src/github.com/<user>/ssm/
        .git
        LICENSE
        README.md
        files.go
    bin/

Note that the base of the git repository (.git) is not the same as the $GOPATH.

Also, go build <package> will output a compiled executable to the current directory. If you want the exe to go to bin/, use go install <package> instead.
