I found the golang.org documentation to be lacking in the details of how exactly one sets up a web + git server backend to support the 'go get' tool, so I recently wrote a blog posting showing an example configuration that supports exporting repositories in this manner, without depending on 3rd-party sites such as github.

In light of the recent rumours that Microsoft may purchase github, and Go's over-dependence on that site for useful packages, I think it's now more relevant than ever that people set up their own 'go get' repositories.

If so, please can you say what you found lacking so we can improve the docs?

Thanks
