To be clear, vendor directories are still optional to use, you just don't have to enable them by default.

We use a unirepo for all of our Go work, and being forced to use the vendor directory would be a massive headache.

My understanding is that there is no longer an option to disable them as a feature as there was in 1.6, though of course you don't have to use them.

Yup, and you can always rename vendor/ to _vendor/ if you want to ignore them temporarily.
