Glide for dep management

[kishaningithub]

This is just a question. Why not use glide ( https://glide.sh/ ) for dependency management?

You mean instead of dep?

I think you're confusing dep with Godep

@cbroglie Thanks for mentioning that! Just read this in glide documentation which suggests users to migrate to dep.

Thanks for the clarification. Closing this issue..
