Subject: bug#69617: guix go import fails on some version tags
Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2024 10:18:52 -0800

In some cases the "guix import go" command fails when attempting to
checkout the source for a module using a tag which does not exist in
the repo.

Upon further investigation, I have found guix/import/go.scm will use
the version string as tag. While this works most of the time, some
module vendors use a different tagging scheme. For example, the
azure-sdk-for-go repository contains many modules and the version tags
are namespaced by module name.

The tag for version v1.3.0 of azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/storage/azblob is
storage/azblob/v1.3.0.

$ curl -s 'https://proxy.golang.org/github.com/!azure/azure-sdk-for-go/sdk/storage/azblob/@v/v1.3.0.info'
| jq
{
  "Version": "v1.3.0",
  "Time": "2024-02-12T16:20:44Z",
  "Origin": {
    "VCS": "git",
    "URL": "https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-go",
    "Subdir": "sdk/storage/azblob",
    "Ref": "refs/tags/sdk/storage/azblob/v1.3.0",
    "Hash": "d5dfa9296a115cc5094b14198b7114a64a490994"
  }
}

I have a patch to fix this, but I would like to discuss the approach
before submitting it. Should I reply to this bug report with the
patch?

Here is the backtrace when attempting to run import on storage/azblob
