Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link this post on monorepos and the Go tool 'go get', which is about checking open source code into a single repository. The one comment cites it while contrasting monorepos with git.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
What Hacker News says?
"go get" works for downloading open source code to check into a monorepo [1]. This is how Google does it. But most organizations use git, which doesn't scale enough to support monorepos very well, and it's awkward if you're just using git.
