For the Prometheus server, this fixes a bug where rules with a
right-hand-side that had a metric name would not correctly replace that
metric name with the left-hand side's rule name.
As it looks, `godep update ...` will preserve the files.
Obviously, if you blow away everything and run a `godep save ...` from
scratch, those files will be missing again. A `godep save` to add new
dependencies without blowing away the `Godeps` directory should work
fine, though.
Another run of 'godep save' fixed the import path.
So you first have to run 'godep update <packages>' and then a 'godep save'.
Let's see if this satisfies Travis.
We were using Godep incorrectly (cloning repos from the internet during
build time instead of including Godeps/_workspace in the GOPATH via
"godep go"). However, to avoid even having to fetch "godeps" from the
internet during build, this now just copies the vendored files into the
GOPATH.
Also, the protocol buffer library moved from Google Code to GitHub,
which is reflected in these updates.
