在Go中使用分叉包导入

Question

Suppose you have a repository at github.com/someone/repo and you fork it to github.com/you/repo. You want to use your fork instead of the main repo, so you do a

go get github.com/you/repo

Now all the import paths in this repo will be "broken", meaning, if there are multiple packages in the repository that reference each other via absolute URLs, they will reference the source, not the fork.

Is there a better way as cloning it manually into the right path?

git clone [e-mail]:you/repo.git $GOPATH/src/github.com/someone/repo

Answer 1

To handle pull requests

• fork a repository github.com/someone/repo to github.com/you/repo
• download original code: go get github.com/someone/repo
• be there: cd "$(go env GOPATH)/src"/github.com/someone/repo
• enable uploading to your fork: git remote add myfork https://github.com/you/repo.git
• upload your changes to your repo: git push myfork
