minio uses govendor for its dependency management.

To manage dependencies

Add new dependencies

• Run go get foo/bar
• Edit your code to import foo/bar
• Run govendor add foo/bar from top-level directory

• Run govendor remove foo/bar

Update dependencies

• Run govendor remove +vendor
• Run to update the dependent package go get -u foo/bar
• Run govendor add +external

Making new releases

minio doesn't follow semantic versioning style, minio instead uses the release date and time as the release versions.

make release will generate new binary into release directory.
