Hi Oleg,

A phase that removes the "vendor" directory (if it exists), would be
nice. "vendor" is the standard location Go uses to bundle all
dependencies, so it would be a simple way to get rid of most/all bundled
dependencies of a package. I noticed Nix indeed uses a similar step in
their build process.

Best wishes,

Troy
