What happened?

After installing via go install github.com/entireio/cli/cmd/entire@latest on Arch Linux, the entire command was not found. The binary installs to ~/go/bin/entire, but this directory is not in PATH by default on most Linux distributions.

Proposed fix:

Add a note in the Quick Start section for Linux users:

# Or install via Go
go install github.com/entireio/cli/cmd/entire@latest

# Linux: Add Go binaries to PATH if not already configured
export PATH="$HOME/go/bin:$PATH"

Steps to reproduce

  1. On Linux (Arch)
  2. Run go install github.com/entireio/cli/cmd/entire@latest
  3. Run entire or which entire
  4. Result: command not found

Entire CLI version

Entire CLI dev (unknown)
