<!-- go.dev/issue/77177 -->

Response file (@file) parsing is now supported for the compile, link, asm, cgo, cover, and pack tools. The response file contains whitespace-separated arguments with support for single-quoted and double-quoted strings, escape sequences, and backslash-newline line continuation. The format is compatible with GCC's response file implementation to ensure interoperability with existing build systems.
