Use `replace` in `go.mod` for local development.
Raw
replace.md

If you don’t want to push your dependencies and tag them all the time and just want to use whatever the local version of code you have to speed up local development and also not break anyone’s code by merging unstable stuff to main, then you can use replace in your go.mod.

The replace line goes above your require statements, as follows:

module github.com/zerotohero-dev/sample-go-app

replace github.com/zerotohero-dev/potato => /Users/volkan/Desktop/WORKSPACE/potato

require (
	github.com/zerotohero-dev/potato v1.0.0
)

Just don’t forget to remove the replace before pushing your final pull request.
