Setting up a SSL Cert from Comodo

I use Namecheap.com as a registrar, and they resale SSL Certs from a number of other companies, including Comodo.

These are the steps I went through to set up an SSL cert.

Purchase the cert

The solution is simple. Just include the following snippet in your ~/.bashrc (or ~/.bash_profile) and reload your shell environment with source ~/.bashrc. This snippet will create a shell function that will override the builtin command cd with a customized one that scans the entered directory, and every other above, for a file named .gopath.

cd () {
    builtin cd "$@"
    cdir=$PWD
    while [ "$cdir" != "/" ]; do
        if [ -e "$cdir/.gopath" ]; then
 export GOPATH=$cdir #or GOPATH=$GOPATH:$cdir if you want to keep original $GOPATH
