### Vendored Dependencies
Hugo uses [govendor](https://github.com/kardianos/govendor) to vendor dependencies, but we don't commit the vendored packages themselves to the Hugo git repository.
Hugo uses [Go Dep](https://github.com/golang/dep) to vendor dependencies, but we don't commit the vendored packages themselves to the Hugo git repository.

govendor get github.com/gohugoio/hugo

### Using Git Remotes
### Fetch the Sources From GitHub
Due to the way Go handles package imports, the best approach for working on a
Hugo fork is to use Git Remotes. Here's a simple walk-through for getting
started:
1. Fetch the Hugo sources as described above.
1. Install Go Dep and get the Hugo source:
1. Change to the Hugo source directory:
```
go get -u -v github.com/golang/dep/cmd/dep
go get -u -v -d github.com/gohugoio/hugo
```
1. Change to the Hugo source directory and fetch the dependencies:
```
cd $HOME/go/src/github.com/gohugoio/hugo
dep ensure
```
1. Create a new branch for your changes (the branch name is arbitrary):
