+## Supporting Go flags when using pflag
+In order to support flags defined using Go's `flag` package, they must be added to the `pflag` flagset. This is usually necessary
+to support flags defined by third-party dependencies (e.g. `golang/glog`).
+
+**Example**: You want to add the Go flags to the `CommandLine` flagset
+```go
+import (
+ goflag "flag"
+ flag "github.com/spf13/pflag"
+)
+
+var ip *int = flag.Int("flagname", 1234, "help message for flagname")
+
+func main() {
+ flag.CommandLine.AddGoFlagSet(goflag.CommandLine)
+ flag.Parse()
+}
+```
+
