I searched through some issues and got the hint about the empty project directories.

.
(...)
└── vendor
    └── github.com
        ├── Sirupsen
        │   └── logrus
        └── onsi
            ├── ginkgo
            └── gomega

when I removed everything in vendor/, glide install worked as expected.

What do you recommend for handling this? Should git ignore /* vendor? Should I add the vendor packages as submodules?

[mattfarina]

What version of Glide are you using (glide --version)? What version of Go and what operating system are you on?

Is the project you're working on public?i If so, I'm happy to take a look at it.

There should be two state. If you see another one, please let me know.

1. You ignore the vendor/ folder. In that case Glide will create and populate it.
2. Your packages being vendored (stored in your projects VCS) in the vendor/ folder. If that happens you'll see messages such as gopkg.in/yaml.v2 appears to be a vendored package. Unable to update. Consider the '--update-vendored' flag. Glide detects packages without a VCS directory and you can opt-in to updating those by using a flag.

It looks like there was some problem along the way or the vendor/ directory is in some state. If I had enough information to reproduce I might be able to help more.

Unfortunately, the project is not public. It is worth noting that the vendored projectfolders appear to be git submodules. If I run git submodule status i get No submodule mapping found in .gitmodules for path 'vendor/github.com/Sirupsen/logrus' and there is no .gitmodules file.

I use glide 0.9.0 on OSX El Capitan.

I prefer solution 2 as I like the idea of reproducible builds.

Same Error happens on Glide v.0.13.1 and Golang 1.9.4
