     6  Package user allows user account lookups by name or id.
     7  
     8  For most Unix systems, this package has two internal implementations of
     9  resolving user and group ids to names, and listing supplementary group IDs.
    10  One is written in pure Go and parses /etc/passwd and /etc/group. The other
    11  is cgo-based and relies on the standard C library (libc) routines such as
    12  getpwuid_r, getgrnam_r, and getgrouplist.
    13  
    14  When cgo is available, and the required routines are implemented in libc
    15  for a particular platform, cgo-based (libc-backed) code is used.
    16  This can be overridden by using osusergo build tag, which enforces
    17  the pure Go implementation.
