cmd/go: for go mod download, -dir option does not exist #27243
Description
What version of Go are you using (go version)?
go version go1.11 linux/amd64
Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?
Yes.
What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?
GOARCH="amd64"
GOOS="linux"
What did you do?
$ echo $PWD
/home/mpl/src/perkeep.org
$ echo $GOPATH
/home/mpl
$ echo $GO111MODULE
on
$ go mod download -dir github.com/gopherjs/gopherjs
flag provided but not defined: -dir
usage: go mod download [-dir] [-json] [modules]
Run 'go help mod download' for details.
What did you expect to see?
I wanted to see what the -dir option does.
The longer answer is I was trying to find out where go get/download stores the downloaded sources, since I hadn't found it in the documentation. I now see with a more thorough read that it is in GOPATH/pkg/mod
