Dependency updates must be under manual control, since the resulting code diffs must be reviewed manually for the sake of security.
It is done with `make vendor-update` now.
* Add vendor license checker, update codecov action, add dependbot for github actions
* update gitingore, temprorary turn on check
* fix action name
* change action rules to trigger only when vendor changes
* remove obsolete line from main action
It is better developing vmctl tool in VictoriaMetrics repository, so it could be released
together with the rest of vmutils tools such as vmalert, vmagent, vmbackup, vmrestore and vmauth.
It is unclear why `go install` doesn't work in Github Actions. Needs additional investigation.
The following error is returned now:
cannot find package "golang.org/x/lint/golint" in any of:
/opt/hostedtoolcache/go/1.15.5/x64/src/golang.org/x/lint/golint (from $GOROOT)
/home/runner/go/src/golang.org/x/lint/golint (from $GOPATH)
This is a preparation for Go 1.16, which deprecates `go get` for installing binaries.
See https://tip.golang.org/doc/go1.16#go-command :
go install, with or without a version suffix (as described above), is now the recommended way
to build and install packages in module mode. go get should be used with the -d flag to adjust
the current module's dependencies without building packages, and use of go get to build and install
packages is deprecated. In a future release, the -d flag will always be enabled.
