A Proposal for Package Versioning in Go

Re:A Proposal for Package Versioning in Go by mfer on Monday March 26, 2018 @09:22PM (#16684337)

Let's say you have the following picture...

App

--> Dependency A --> Dependency C (at version 1.2.3)

--> Dependency B --> Dependency C (at version 1.3.4)

The latest release of Dependency C is 1.4.5. Which version would be used after running `vgo get -u`?

As you note it would use the newer version of those specified (version 1.3.4). The newer releases after those explicitly specified are not used.

I believe (having tried the tour) that you will get v1.4.5 at the App level, if you do vgo get -u.

If you just do plain vgo get, you will get 1.3.4, because of the minimum version approach.
