go get -u golang.org/x/net does not work as documented

[Lee Painton]

Trying the listed command returns: 

package golang.org/x/net: no Go files in /Users/lpainton/go/src/golang.org/x/net

Workaround is trivial, but the documentation on https://github.com/golang/net is wrong

[Volker Dobler]

As golang.org/x/net is not a Go package the result is

to be expected. I wonder where you found documented

that go get -u golang.org/x/net should behave differently?

Just to make sure: go get golang.org/x/net works, it does

download all for golang.org/x/net and the message is

just an information.

My build system was missing golang.org/x/net/lex/httplex and issuing go get for this package was giving me that message without actually retrieving the httplex sub-package.  I assumed it meant go get was failing.  I will try to verify tomorrow though.
