Stay away, there is something deeply wrong with author's priorities.
This generates high-calorie syntactic sugar just to satisfy an itch.
Run the generated code through the golang-ci linter, which will barf on what is getting created, for example:
``` // Eliminates any 'unused variable' errors _, _, _, _ = err, fileContent, fileContentStrVersion, trimmedLines ```
golang is a procedural language. If you cannot deal with it, don't use it, but please stop polluting the ecosystem.
