# On Jan 7 2015, a change was made to govet which made it incompatible with GO 1.4.2
# The way 'go get' works, it always checks out the tip of the GO tools repo, which means
# all of our Jenkins builds were failing.
#
# The workaround is to checkout a specific older version of GO tools which is compatible
# with GO 1.4.2.
