The main problem in current binding that it does not have source code,
only compile package file,
and if i simple want to rebould package without CGO (static linking)
or run local godoc to see docs i can't do that.

Nothing special - put all go files (*.go) to dir and push it to repo.
About docs - before each function in go file you need
// FuncName document string
where FuncName - function name, document string some docs about
function. Nothing special.
to compile with cgo you need on top of file something like:

// #cgo CFLAGS: -DXXXXX=1
// #cgo LDFLAGS: -lguestfs
// #include <libguestfs.h>
import "C"
