I have been using https://github.com/FiloSottile/gvt for years, it's great,
simple, you vendor only what you want, so, in this case, that one lib you
are talking about
you can even leave the imports as they are, but point to your own fork of
the repo by modifying the manifest file
for example, we run a modified version of mgo (mongo driver) so our
manifest has
{
"importpath": "gopkg.in/mgo.v2",
"repository": "https://github.com/ascendantcompliance/mgo";,
"vcs": "git",
"revision": "cded8d2220d584e95dd80ddd67934ab9e80e908d",
"branch": "v2",
"notests": true
}
Regards,
Diego
