Preferable way is to download tarball with the signature from website and, for example, run tests with benchmarks:
$ [fetch|wget] http://www.gocheese.cypherpunks.ru/download/gocheese-4.2.0.tar.zst
$ [fetch|wget] http://www.gocheese.cypherpunks.ru/download/gocheese-4.2.0.tar.zst.{asc,sig}
[verify signature]
$ zstd -d < gocheese-4.2.0.tar.zst | tar xf -
$ cd gocheese-4.2.0
$ go build -mod=vendor

You have to verify downloaded tarballs authenticity to be sure that you retrieved trusted and untampered software. There are two options:
Use GNU Privacy Guard free software implementation. For the very first time it is necessary to get signing public key and import it. It is provided here, but you should check alternate resources.
