Like most golang projects, it should be:

Cloned in $GOPATH/src/github.com/itchio/butler (see gopath docs)
Compiled with go get
- You can add -v for extra info, and -x for even more information

On Windows, you'll need a compiler toolchain installed, I'm personally using gcc, installed with http://www.msys2.org/ - I compile from the msys2 shell.
