Hi there,
I would like to patch a package from the standard library in a large Go
project. To be specific, I'd like to replace archive/tar
in https://github.com/containers/podman.
I can kludge this by creating my own version of the tar package, and
patching up the imports across the vendor/ directory, but those changes are
overwritten as soon as I run 'go mod update'.
I guess I could also fork all relevant dependencies, apply the import
change across the forks, and update go.mod in all dependencies, and then
use a 'replace' directive in the main go.mod to use my forks.
I was wondering if there is a less laborious way to get this done.
