tool: dupl about gometalinter HOT 3 CLOSED

Interesting tool, but it gives a great number of false positives for me. And even the ones that are duplicates end up being copy-and-paste code due to Go's lack of generics.

But the biggest problem is that the output format is not conducive to stateless parsing. eg.

$ dupl -t=20
found 2 clones:
  loc 1: main.go, line 487-490,
  loc 2: main.go, line 492-495,
found 2 clones:
  loc 1: main.go, line 147-147,
  loc 2: main.go, line 154-154,

I've filed a ticket to see if a more useful format can be output.

I would like to see this integrated too. dupl looks like very interesting tool.

The dupl guys have added a -plumbing flag to generate machine-readable output, and I've integrated it into gometalinter.
