Hello, Is there a way to update packages installed using `go get` without duplicating packages that are distributed with Go or by my Linux distribution?
Background: I'm not a Go developer (yet). I am using some programs written in Go, which I installed using `go get`, and would like to keep those programs up to date. Running `go get -u all` or `cd ~/go && go get -u ./...` both result in many packages being downloaded and rebuilt unnecessarily (and more with each invocation), which slows updates significantly and wastes a lot of disk space. Is there a command which I can run that only updates the packages I have installed and their dependencies without updating packages installed system-wide? As a specific example (using Debian golang-go 2:1.10~5): $ rm -rf ~/go $ go get -u mvdan.cc/sh/cmd/shfmt $ cd ~/go $ du -hs . 7.8M . $ go list ./... | wc -l 6 $ go get -u ./... $ du -hs . 46M . $ go list ./... | wc -l 98 $ go get -u ./... $ du -hs . 111M . $ go list ./... | wc -l 160 $ du -hs . 181M . $ go list ./... | wc -l 235 (Since each `go get` takes longer to complete, I have not waited until a stable state is reached.) Any suggestions or pointers to documentation that I may have overlooked would be much appreciated.
