Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes.

What did you do?

cd `mktemp -d`
export GOPATH=$PWD
mkdir hello
cd hello
vgo mod -init -module example.com/hello
vgo mod -require rsc.io/quote@v1.5.2
vgo mod -replace rsc.io/quote@v1.5.2=>github.com/myitcv/vgo-by-example-quote-fork@master

gives:

bash: github.com/myitcv/vgo-by-example-quote-fork@master: No such file or directory

What did you expect to see?

Because the value passed to the -require flag is not quoted, this output is expected (at least in Bash).

So I wonder whether we should either:

  • do nothing, on the basis vgo mod will mostly be called by tools (assuming it will)
  • change the format of the value passed to the -require flag
  • quote the example:
...

The -replace='old@v=>new@w' and -dropreplace=old@v flags
add and drop a replacement of the given module path and version pair.
Note that -replace overrides any existing replacements for old@v.

...

because it feels like this is something that people will unwittingly fall foul of.

I'll send a CL changing it to plain =, like we use in other flags.
