Andrew Gerrand5bc444d2014-12-10 11:35:11 +1100[diff] [blame]1This page contains a list of tools for managing Go packages and their dependencies. The tools are divided into categories based on their approach to version management.
2
3The approach [endorsed by the Go project](http://golang.org/doc/faq#get_version) is "vendoring" (described below) and [godep](https://github.com/tools/godep) is a well-maintained tool for managing vendored dependencies.
4
5## Vendoring
6Vendoring takes the 3rd party source code that is referenced in your project and makes a copy of that code inside a new folder within the project. All the code your project needs is inside the one project repository. Vendoring also provides a performance enhancement on getting the code because only one url call is required.

61## Revision Locking
62Revision Locking creates a dependency file that references specific commits in the different version control systems the code is located in. Just like vendoring, the RL tool is used to get, build and install your project. One advantage is that your project repository continues to only contain the specific project code.

134## Import Proxies
135Import Proxies act as a man in the middle between the Go tool and the VCS. It parses the data stream while the repository is being cloned.

148## Go Version Managers
149Go Version Managers allow you to have multiple versions of Go installed on your machine. It allows you to switch between those versions.
