Go vendoring?

[ilovezfs]

The Homebrew Science formula for vcfanno has 11 resource blocks, which need to be updated each time there is a new release. In the absence of Go vendoring, this is the only way we can ensure reproducible builds.

Would you be willing to start using the Go vendor directory or one of the other Go vendor systems so that we can remove these resource blocks?

Some good choices are

https://github.com/Masterminds/glide
https://github.com/tools/godep

I'd like to encourage this. I'm assembling a Spack package for vcfanno and would also appreciate it being self contained.
