Don't couple your Go code to GitHub

一句话概要

The technical musings of Iain Cambridge.

原文开头节选

One of the good features of Go is that you namespace your code with the location to fetch the code. This means if you host your Go code at http://github.com/thetrueares/boneclone then you have the line import “github.com/thetrueares/boneclone” and Go will fetch it using git. This makes it super easy to know where to go to report bugs for open source libraries and really easy to fetch and distribute go libraries without a centralised package management system. For many, it’s literally the location of the git hosting, but this has some downsides, and you should use your own custom domain, and I’ll explain why.

The main problem with using your git hosting location is that your code is now coupled to a hosting provider. That is, if you move your git hosting to GitLab then you have to change your code! Otherwise, you’ll be fetching the old verison. This can result in you being unable to change git hosting provider because the amount of overhead in switching. So you literally end up with your code coupled to GitHub.
