The original contents of `vendor` were inadvertently captured with an older version of `godep`. Here, we recapture dependencies by running the following: ``` godep restore -v cat Godeps/Godeps.json | jq -r '.Deps[].ImportPath' | xargs godep update -v ``` The newer godep makes the following changes as it captures dependencies: * Skips test files * Copies `LICENSE` / `PATENTS` files There is also an additional diff in `golang.org/x/sys/unix` that looks very similar to the diff between `master..c65f27f` in that repo, so I'm guessing that dependency was accidentally captured from master instead of the commit saved to `Godeps.json`. All in all, these changes should all be "more correct" and result in smaller diffs for any future updates made to dependencies. |

go-homedir
This is a Go library for detecting the user's home directory without the use of cgo, so the library can be used in cross-compilation environments.
Usage is incredibly simple, just call homedir.Dir()
to get the home directory
for a user, and homedir.Expand()
to expand the ~
in a path to the home
directory.
Why not just use os/user
? The built-in os/user
package requires
cgo on Darwin systems. This means that any Go code that uses that package
cannot cross compile. But 99% of the time the use for os/user
is just to
retrieve the home directory, which we can do for the current user without
cgo. This library does that, enabling cross-compilation.
