+        Overview:
+
+          go-mod-oe is a tool for processing go dependencies to generate
+          dependencies suitable for OE fetcher consumption.
+
+          In particular, it creates a build structure suitable for
+          '-mod="vendor"' go builds. All dependencies are in the vendor/
+          directory, so no golang specific fetching or network access happens
+          during the build.
+
+          The files src_uri.inc, relocation.inc and modules.txt are generated
+          and suitable for recipe inclusion.
