The contents of proton-c/bindings/go on branch "go1". Basically the Go binding source code. > - Have you looked into how other Apache projects are supporting "go > get", if there are any, to see what do they do? Nope, good point. I've looked at a bunch of google and github projects, but all pure Go so the tools Just Work. Anyone know of other mixed -language projects with a go component? > I'm not sure how well it would go down with infra to be routinely > 'distributing' things directly out of the repo. I'm pretty sure they're OK with distributing source code out of the repo :) Go distributes everything as pure source, so no unusual use of the repo is implied. I have "go get" *almost* working directly out of the ASF repo now, but I can't work around all the glitches - in particular the documentation browser is a mess. If I could I would rather keep it all in the same repo. > Might be worth > discussing with infra. Perhaps we could point folks at the GitHub > mirror to alleviate that?

If anyone's interested in brainstorming about the proper way to do this (esp. anyone who's done Go work) I'd be happy to go over the issues in painful detail. > On 10 July 2015 at 16:34, aconway <acon...@redhat.com> wrote: > > I would like to create a separte git repo for the proton Go > > binding. > > > > Go provides "go get" to grab online go source libraries, based on > > cloning repos.
