title: How to install Go package manually from source code
body: <p>I'm living in China and is not able to download &amp; install GO package through command (event I use the vpn network):</p>
  
  <pre><code> go get -u &lt;repo_url&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but I can access the <strong>repo_url</strong> and downloand its source code.
  So my question is can I put the scource code under <strong>src</strong> folder and run commamd ? :</p>
  
  <pre><code>go install 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>if yes, what's the different betweeen the two way ?</p>
