Description

The proposal for vgo has been accepted: https://research.swtch.com/vgo-accepted

vgo aims to replace dep for dependency management in Go.

TLDR; vgo will be part of the Go tool chain in Go 1.11 (July 31 2018) on an experimental basis. Official production-ready status will be in Go 1.12 (January 2019).

Edit: vgo is now called Go modules in Go 1.11.

We will support both dep and Go modules while Go 1.11 and Go 1.10 are being maintained. Since the Go team maintains the last 2 versions of Go, we will drop support for dep when Go 1.12 is released.
