How do large Go projects outside of Google get built, anyway? Is it idiomatic to use Makefiles?

Inside Google, there are BUILD rules for Go, but it looks like they haven't been open-sourced in Bazel yet.

Nice! Are there any plans to document their existence in the Build Encyclopedia[0]? Or is the idea that each company should vendor the build rules for languages like Go?
