It is worth noting that godep recently added an import path rewrite option, which removes the need to manipulate your workspace's packages or even run the dependency tool in order to `go get` or build your code. https://github.com/tools/godep/commit/983ff9241cead0f7e6ad0ae4a92b335c33ade8a2 https://github.com/tools/godep/commit/983ff9241cead0f7e6ad0a... Edit: Though, perhaps the final solution could be cleaner with a vendoring tool written from the ground up with the purpose of import path rewriting. From what I can tell, goop has the same GOPATH issues as godep, but godep allows you to address it in different ways. save/restore is one way, and there is also the proxy to the go tool `godep go` which looks to be the goop approach.
