+.SH NAME
+go \- tool for managing Go source code
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+An import path (see \fBgo-importpath\fP(1)) denotes a package
+stored in the local file system. Certain import paths also
+describe how to obtain the source code for the package using
+a revision control system.
+
+A few common code hosting sites have special syntax:
+
+.TP
+.B BitBucket (Mercurial)
+.Vb 4
+\&import "bitbucket.org/user/project"
+\&import "bitbucket.org/user/project/sub/directory"
+.Ve
+
+.TP
+.B GitHub (Git)
+.Vb 4
+\&import "github.com/user/project"
+\&import "github.com/user/project/sub/directory"
+.Ve
+
+.TP
+.B Google Code Project Hosting (Git, Mercurial, Subversion)
+.Vb 4
+\&import "code.google.com/p/project"
+\&import "code.google.com/p/project/sub/directory"
+.Ve
+
+.Vb 4
+\&import "code.google.com/p/project.subrepository"
+\&import "code.google.com/p/project.subrepository/sub/directory"
+.Ve
+
+.TP
+.B Launchpad (Bazaar)
+
+.Vb 4
+\&import "launchpad.net/project"
+\&import "launchpad.net/project/series"
+\&import "launchpad.net/project/series/sub/directory"
+.Ve
+
+.Vb 4
+\&import "launchpad.net/~user/project/branch"
+\&import "launchpad.net/~user/project/branch/sub/directory"
+.Ve
+
+.P
+For code hosted on other servers, import paths may either be qualified
+with the version control type, or the go tool can dynamically fetch
+the import path over https/http and discover where the code resides
+from a <meta> tag in the HTML.
+
+To declare the code location, an import path of the form
+
+.Vb 6
+\& repository.vcs/path
+.Ve
+
+specifies the given repository, with or without the .vcs suffix,
+using the named version control system, and then the path inside
+that repository. The supported version control systems are:
+
+.TP
+.B Bazaar
+ .bzr
+.TP
+.B Git
+ .git
+.TP
+.B Mercurial
+ .hg
+.TP
+.B Subversion
+ .svn
+
+.P
+For example,
+
+.Vb 6
+\& import "example.org/user/foo.hg"
+.Ve
+
+denotes the root directory of the Mercurial repository at
+example.org/user/foo or foo.hg, and
+
+.Vb 6
+\& import "example.org/repo.git/foo/bar"
+.Ve
+
+denotes the foo/bar directory of the Git repository at
+example.com/repo or repo.git.
+
+When a version control system supports multiple protocols,
+each is tried in turn when downloading. For example, a Git
+download tries git://, then https://, then http://.
+
+If the import path is not a known code hosting site and also lacks a
+version control qualifier, the go tool attempts to fetch the import
+over https/http and looks for a <meta> tag in the document's HTML
+<head>.
+
+The meta tag has the form:
+
+.Vb 6
+\& <meta name="go-import" content="import-prefix vcs repo-root">
+.Ve
+
+The import-prefix is the import path corresponding to the repository
+root. It must be a prefix or an exact match of the package being
+fetched with "go get". If it's not an exact match, another http
+request is made at the prefix to verify the <meta> tags match.
+
+The vcs is one of "git", "hg", "svn", etc,
+
+The repo-root is the root of the version control system
+containing a scheme and not containing a .vcs qualifier.
+
+For example,
+
+.Vb 6
+\& import "example.org/pkg/foo"
+.Ve
+
+will result in the following request(s):
+
+.Vb 6
+\& https://example.org/pkg/foo?go-get=1 (preferred)
+\& http://example.org/pkg/foo?go-get=1 (fallback)
+.Ve
+
+If that page contains the meta tag
+
+.Vb 6
+\& <meta name="go-import" content="example.org git https://code.org/r/p/exproj">
+.Ve
+
+the go tool will verify that https://example.org/?go-get=1 contains the
+same meta tag and then git clone https://code.org/r/p/exproj into
+GOPATH/src/example.org.
+
+New downloaded packages are written to the first directory
+listed in the GOPATH environment variable (see \fBgo-path\fP(1)).
+
+The go command attempts to download the version of the
+package appropriate for the Go release being used.
+See \fBgo-install\fP(1) for more.
