bolt-rawgen: Please write to a new file

[tv42]

Editing the main source file is just evil. It makes diffs harder to read, it messes with the files open in my editor, and what go generate stuff is out there has already settled into writing new files.

My personal favorite has been to use *.gen.go for generated go source. Stringer (https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/tools/cmd/stringer) seems to use *_string.go, but that's a bit weird to me because it interacts with build tags..

:+1: On this. I think generated files should be separate from the main source.

Would you be open to accepting a PR for this @benbjohnson, or is there a reason this is not currently done?

Sure, I'd accept a PR. Thanks, @chrsm. :+1:
