So you’ve never had problems with vendoring in Golang? At least this particular strategy makes it trivial to have different versions of different libraries in different projects on the same machine, each project entirely manages its own dependencies without any reliance on language specific tools. That’s why this kind of library format is so extremely popular.


With go's new module system, managing dependencies is quite pain free.


That depends pretty much on how they follow the versioning rules.
