ctx.DetectProjectGOPATH: both C:\Work\src\github.com\F21\some_project are in the same GOPATH C:\Work\src\github.com\F21\some_project with Git Bash

What version of Go (go version) and dep (git describe --tags) are you using?

Go 1.9-Beta1 and dep c79b048
Git is 2.13.1.windows.1

What dep command did you run?

I have a project with this structure

• cmd
  • some_executable
    • main.go
• some_package (imports the some_project package)
• something.go (package is some_project)

$ dep init -v

What did you expect to see?

There should be no error and init should work correctly.

What did you see instead?

ctx.DetectProjectGOPATH: both C:\Work\src\github.com\F21\some_project and C:\Work\src\github.com\F21\some_project are in the same GOPATH C:/Work/

@ibrasho i think we may have broken windows support :(

This error makes no sense. 😕

What's the value of GOPATH in Git Bash and the command prompt (echo %GOPATH%)?

[F21]

@ibrasho In both Git Bash and CMD, the GOPATH are set to C:\Work. I confirmed this by echoing the respective GOPATH environment variable in each shell.

[ibrasho]

Copying from Slack:

@F21: I get the problem if I run it in Git bash in admin mode, but not in the cmd shell using cmder
in both shells, the GOPATH env var resolves to C:/work
seems to not work in git bash
whether git bash is being run as admin or not

[ibrasho]

ctx.DetectProjectGOPATH: both C:\Work\src\github.com\F21\some_project and C:\Work\src\github.com\F21\some_project are in the same GOPATH C:/Work/

This error message means the following values were set and detected:

Varible	Value
Project.AbsRoot	C:\Work\src\github.com\F21\some_project
Project.ResolvedAbsRoot	C:\Work\src\github.com\F21\some_project
Ctx.GOPATH	C:/Work/

This line in Ctx.DetectProjectGOPATH should have returned true on these values and returned the GOPATH with no error.

@F21 I would appreciate it if you have time to debug this further.

@ibrasho

Just tried this on my dev machine with git bash:

$ echo $GOPATH
D:\10-workspace\go

$ dep init
ctx.DetectProjectGOPATH: both D:\10-workspace\go\src\github.com\some_company\some_project and D:\10-workspace\go\src\github.com\some_company\some_project are in the same GOPATH D:/10-Workspace/go

Could you try running this gist and report what it outputs?

Running it in git bash:

[ibrasho]

Could you update dep and try dep init in that directory?

[F21]

Updated dep to ec50ada

here's what I get:

$ dep init
ctx.DetectProjectGOPATH: both D:\10-workspace\go\src\github.com\F21\dep-gopath-err and D:\10-workspace\go\src\github.com\F21\dep-gopath-err are in the same GOPATH D:\10-workspace\go

$ cd cmd/something_else/

$ dep init
ctx.DetectProjectGOPATH: both D:\10-workspace\go\src\github.com\F21\dep-gopath-err\cmd\something_else and D:\10-workspace\go\src\github.com\F21\dep-gopath-err\cmd\something_else are in the same GOPATH D:\10-workspace\go

[ibrasho]

I assume this is Git Bash? What about Cmder?
