Well, my embarrassingly incorrect assumption came about from a package I
was writing recently; I was using the go mod tool to initialize my go.mod
rather than writing the file myself, and as an import statement I first
tried using the local filepath, which of coarse didn't work. Then I tried
things like: "." (yielding error: unknown import path
"_/home/k/code/go/delete": internal error: module loader did not resolve
import" upon build (but it let me initialize the module without issue).
What finally did work, was when I used a GitHub repo URL that I created
only for this purpose, which is what ultimately brought about my
assumption. It never occurred to me to use a fictitious import path
because, well, there is nothing there.
So it was my mistake (*egg on my face ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
But thx for the replies.
