// Package golang provides support for Go and Go proto rules. It generates
// go_library, go_binary, go_test, and go_proto_library rules.
//
// Configuration
//
// Go rules support the flags -build_tags, -go_prefix, and -external.
// They also support the directives # gazelle:build_tags, # gazelle:prefix,
// and # gazelle:importmap_prefix. See
// https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-gazelle/blob/master/README.rst#directives
// for information on these.
//
// Rule generation
//
// Currently, Gazelle generates rules for one Go package per directory. In
// general, we aim to support Go code which is compatible with "go build". If
// there are no buildable packages, Gazelle will delete existing rules with
// default names. If there are multiple packages, Gazelle will pick one that
// matches the directory name or will print an error if no such package is
// found.
//
// Gazelle names library and test rules somewhat oddly: go_default_library, and
// go_default_test. This is for historic reasons: before the importpath
// attribute was mandatory, import paths were inferred from label names. Even if
// we never support multiple packages in the future (we should), we should
// migrate away from this because it's surprising. Libraries should generally
// be named after their directories.
//
// Dependency resolution
//
// Go libraries are indexed by their importpath attribute. Gazelle attempts to
// resolve libraries by import path using the index, filtered using the
// vendoring algorithm. If an import doesn't match any known library, Gazelle
// guesses a name for it, locally (if the import path is under the current
// prefix), or in an external repository or vendor directory (depending
// on external mode).
//
// Gazelle has special cases for import paths associated with proto Well
// Known Types and Google APIs. rules_go declares canonical rules for these.
