Trying to create a local repo of go.tools that is go get-able

I have added a new switch (-xml) to the go cover tool to generate an XML doc that is consumable by Atlassian clover so the bamboo builds of our go projects can report simple coverage statistics. I would like this local version to be accessible to the build agents using go get <importpath>.

These are the steps I've tried:

- setup $GOPATH
- created $GOPATH/src/stash.example.com/scm/x
- cd $GOPATH/src/stash.example.com/scm/x
- git clone --bare https://go.goolesource.com/tools

and then basically followed the steps for importing an existing git project into stash as described in https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/STASH/Importing+code+from+an+existing+project#Importingcodefromanexistingproject-ImportanexistingGitprojectintoStash

If I then 'rm -rf tools' followed by 'go get -d stash.example.com/scm/x/tools' I get "unrecognized import path stash.example.com/scm/x/tools". It works if I type 'go get -d stash.example.com/scm/x/tools.git' (providing the vcs hint to go get), but the resulting subdirectory is named 'test.git'. The alternative to providing the vcs hint in the path is to return a <meta> tag in the html from the stash server, but I have no idea how to create that.

I should add that 'cd $GOPATH/src/stash.example.com/scm/x' + 'git clone http://[email protected]/scm/x/tools.git' creates the tools subdirectory as expected.

I must host this on a local server inside my firewall, so github is not an option. Any advice?

What does curl http://stash.example.com/scm/x/tools yield? What servers are listening on stash.example.com? Generally, a go get-able path either contains a component with a suffix denoting the revision control system used (e.g. example.com/repository.git/package) or a certain meta-tag exists in one of the directory layers that tells go get where to get the source.

go get is an unsophisticated mechanism and if I recall correctly it doesn't work with git when the server requires authentication.

Have a look here for the relevant documentation on how import paths work with go get. I'm not going to cite out of this as it's rather long, unlikely to go down and you can retrieve it on your local machine by installing godoc and running

godoc -http=:8080 # or some other port

and then pointing your browser to

http://localhost:8080/cmd/go/#hdr-Relative_import_paths.
