The documentation says that octosql can be built with these commands:

git clone https://github.com/cube2222/octosql
cd octosql
go install

But what happens next? go install downloaded a bunch of packages but then nothing happened and I can't find an executable binary. Sorry, I'm not a go developer and not familiar with go specific conventions.

go build -o binary
The "binary" is executable file.

I found out that go install places the binary in ~/go/bin/octosql which is not usually part of PATH. Might make sense to mention this as it can't be assumed to be common knowledge outside go hackers.
