 # gvt, the go vendoring tool
 
 `gvt` is a simple Go vendoring tool made for the GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT.  
+
 It's based entirely on [gb-vendor](https://github.com/constabulary/gb).
 
-You run `gvt fetch` when you would run `go get`. `gvt` downloads packages to `./vendor/...`. With `GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT=1` set the compiler will find and use those dependencies without import path rewriting. `gvt` works recursively as you would expect, and lets you update vendored dependencies. It also writes a manifest to `./vendor/manifest`.

+`gvt` works recursively as you would expect, and lets you update vendored dependencies. It also writes a manifest to `./vendor/manifest`. Finally, it strips the VCS metadata so that you can commit the vendored source cleanly.
 
 Packages whose dependencies are vendored with `gvt` are `go build`-able and `go get`-able by Go 1.5 with `GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT=1` set.

    * no GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT support: old tools are based on import path rewriting or GOPATH overrides
    * requirement to run on clients: some require the user to install the tool and run it after cloning, which breaks `go get`
    * **no real fetching support**: tools like Godep just copy packages from your GOPATH, instead of pulling it from the Internet
