Weird... I thought I had removed them ages ago. Nevermind! Cheers for the PR!.
@boyter cheers for this awesome project! :slightly_smiling_face:
Just a quick followup question: is the vendor
directory itself currently used at all? Or are you just keeping it around as a way to reliably have access to those external dependencies?
It should be used by the compiler when building from source. I also keep it so I have a reliable way to access them. Also I hate projects where you clone, then spend 30 mins waiting for dependencies before being able to build.
I guess I also watched a company grind to a halt when left-pad happened while I was trucking on.
Haha fair enough, good points. Thank you!
It seems these might have been overlooked when converting to Go modules about four years ago, or maybe they were left in for
golang/dep
users to have time to move to Go modules.In any case, as long as I'm not missing something,
golang/dep
has been archived for over three years now, so it's probably safe to remove them?
