Helmfile: Install instructions

[CalvinRodo]

I ran the go get command but am unsure where the file gets downloaded from, is there some documentation I can reference?

[emman27]

go get is generally for developers. It actually downloads the source code from github into your go working directory. If you're not a go developer, you're probably better off downloading a binary release.

Hey! Thanks a lot for your support @emman27.

I remember that there was an another confusion in the past #304. So my best bet in regard to improving the doc is to remove the go get github.com/roboll/helmfile instruction from README.

Anyway -

@CalvinRodo You can grab it from the release page and other locations. Regarding go get, it would have git cloned the entire repo under your $GOPATH/src/github.com/roboll/helmfile and the resulting binary would have been produced to $GOPATH/bin/helmfile. Not sure where the reference is though!

Perhaps the go get github.com/roboll/helmfile instruction belongs in a separate section, or in a CONTRIBUTING.md file instead. Would be nice for this repo to have a contributor's guide!

CONTRIBUTING.md sounds like a good idea. Thanks!

Awesome, yeah I'm not a go developer so was unfamiliar, and was a bit confused with it, I've used brew for our macs and your release page for our linux machines.

Since it was under the installation section I thought that this might have been a nice way to install similar to how npm global will install binaries.

I think a contributing.md would be a better fit for it.

Thanks @CalvinRodo! I've submitted #437 for that.
