How can you handle transitive dependencies in Go Modules?

  • Use the go get command to add them manually.
  • Dependencies are automatically handled; no action needed.
  • Add them to the project's vendor directory.
  • Edit the Go Module file to include them explicitly.
Transitive dependencies in Go Modules are automatically managed. When you add a direct dependency to your project using the go get or import statement, Go Modules will automatically fetch and include its transitive dependencies. You don't need to add them manually or edit the Go Module file unless you want to use a specific version or exclude a transitive dependency. In that case, you can edit the Go Module file. Manually adding to the vendor directory is not the recommended approach in Go Modules.
