What tools understand vendor.json and can be expected to work with it? I don't actually know. I saw reference to Daniel's govendor earlier, which was the first I'd heard of...
I've been analyzing // +build usage in the Go ecosystem and turned up [internal/cpu/init.go](https://github.com/zchee/xxhash3/blob/2bc7ecb636bb3c1e0dd72857a39f185246b1d460/internal/cpu/init.go), which says: // +build 386 !gccgo,amd64 !gccgo,amd64p32 !gccgo It looks like the intent here was "(386...
We propose to add a new package golang.org/x/exp/xiter that defines adapters on iterators. Perhaps these would one day be moved to the iter package or perhaps not. There are concerns...
Overuse of //go:linkname to reach into Go standard library internals (especially runtime internals) means that when we do change the standard library internals in ways that should not matter, we...
With the use of atomic.Pointer in package sync, this program is now generating the full compiled code for atomic.Pointer into its object file even though it's not being used at...
golang.org/x/tools/cmd/bisect is incredibly useful for binary-searching over potential bug locations when a compiler or library change causes a problem. There is a small package that handles the protocol of speaking...
``` % cat x.go package p func f(int) string func g() { b := f(1) collect := func(min, max, stop int) []int { return nil } b := f(2) _...
