This is different for different tools. I have been using gb, as it makes the most sense to me: https://getgb.io/ sysutils/hfm uses this godep is also popular, from what I understand: https://godoc.org/github.com/tools/godep Vendoring changed internally in go with a GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT build environment variable (and then default in 1.6), although I have not yet played with it: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Bz5-UB7g2uPBdOx-rw5t9MxJwkfpx90cqG9AFL0JAYo/edit ... from the docs, it sounds like it would be compatible with gb from a build standpoint - and you simply could use gb to track, fetch and lock versions in development - the same thing the ports GH_TUPLE covers. What you do when it's not hosted at github, well.... Derek
