How to go-imports subdirectory?

[tomas...@showmax.com]

Hello,

given repository structured as

+ $ tree .
.
├── foo
└── go
├── go.mod
└── main.go

1 directory, 3 files

I'm trying to setup go-import meta tag for it, however it just does not
seem to work. Meta tag looks like this:

<meta name="go-import" content="example.org/ git ssh://git@HOST:PORT/foo.git/go" />

It is correctly resolved to the repository, the repository is
downloaded, however the resulting pkg directory does not contain the go
directory at all. I've tracked it down to golang.org/x/mod/zip, which
seems to exclude every subdirectory with go.mod.

So I guess I need to somehow convince git to package just the go
directory (and move it one level up), but looking at
src/cmd/go/internal/modfetch/codehost/git.go:828 I do not see a way to
do it.

I assume what I'm trying to do should be possible, since it does not
sound like such a insane use-case, but I'm just not able to find a way
to do this. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

I'm using go 1.14.4 ( go version go1.14.4 linux/amd64 ).



Thank you in advance for any advice on this,

Tomas Volf

Can't you move the go.mod one level up, into the root?

But that would mean all imports paths would have the `/go` in them,

no?

Yes. But then you could use go get to import it.
