Well, I think that it is reasonable to say that the practice of vendoring dependencies is not limited to Google alone. It might not be as common in dynamic languages, but it&#x27;s fairly common in static languages like C++, which Go was designed to replace. `go get` is basically a better curl for _getting_ dependencies, not _managing_ them. The language authors and the community are addressing the problem of management right now.<p>Before dismissing Go, please try to understand its history and the fact that it is changing.
