GitLab is a free, open-source way to host private .git repositories but it does not seem to work with Go. When you create a project it generates a URL of the form:
Golang 1.2.1 doesn't seem to understand this syntax.
Is there a way to get this to work?

that's not how go get works, it uses import paths, not direct scm uris. Does your gitlab have https git access (like github)? – JimB Apr 17 '15 at 19:25
I'm not sure. It was installed via this procedure: cloud.google.com/solutions/gitlab . Is there a way i can tell? – James Fremen Apr 17 '15 at 19:49
I'm not really familiar with gitlab, but I know they added support for go get on public projects: github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/pull/5958. Worst case you can always just do the initial clone of the repo into your GOPATH manually – JimB Apr 17 '15 at 19:56
regrettably i have to use a private repo for this. I am using the 'worst case' for now :). – James Fremen Apr 17 '15 at 19:59
This issue is now resolved in Gitlab 8.* but is still unintuitive. The most difficult challenge indeed is go get and the following steps will allow you to overcome those:
Create an SSH key pair. Be sure to not overwrite an existing pair that is by default saved in ~/.ssh/.
Create a new Secret Variable in your Gitlab project. Use SSH_PRIVATE_KEY as Key and the content of your private key as Value.
Modify your .gitlab-ci.yml with a before_script.
Add the public key from the key pair created in step 1 as a Deploy Key in the project that you need to go get.

regrettably i can't verify that this works as I'm not currently using gitlab. If someone can verify this i'll mark it as the answer. – James Fremen May 18 '17 at 0:54
Thanks @JamesFremen, I don't know that anyone will jump on it but I've had several people ask me about it and it seems to work well. – daplho Jun 14 '17 at 20:24
This worked for me after I added one more line to the before_script section: - git config --global url."git@gitlab.com:".insteadOf "https://gitlab.com/" – dirkaholic Jul 19 '17 at 16:37
Assuming you have the correct privileges to git clone the repository, this will make go get work for all repos on server 1.2.3.4.
I tested this with go version 1.6.2, 1.8, and 1.9.1.

If go get can't fetch the repo, you can always do the initial clone with git directly:
The tools will then work normally, expect for go get -u which will require the -f flag because the git remote doesn't match the canonical import path.

yes, i think this is the workaround i'm currently using. – James Fremen Apr 18 '15 at 21:13
GitLab version 11.8+ and Go version 1.13+ will work with BASIC auth by using your GitLab personal token. Go to Settings -> Access Tokens in your Gitlab, add a personal access token or use your existing one. In your ~/.netrc file, add following lines:
Then you should be able to do go get locally.
If you need to build it in CI, then add following line in your .gitlab-ci.yml file:

Gitlab does support go get natively.
go get will issue an http request to the url you provide and look for meta tags that point to the exact source control path.
For my gitlab installation this is mygitlabdomain.com/myProject/myRepo. For you I assume this would be 1.2.3.4/private-developers/project.
Unfortunately it only appears to give the http scm path, not the ssh path, so I had to enter my credentials to clone. You can easily fiddle with the remote in your local repository after it clones if you want to update to the ssh url.
You can test the url by poking http://1.2.3.4:private-developers/project?go-get=1 and viewing source and looking for the meta tag.

I've posted an answer as well.. it seems like a fix is in gitlab 7.9. – James Fremen Apr 18 '15 at 22:39
thanks for all the help.. hopefully this is working smoothly in the near future – James Fremen Apr 18 '15 at 22:48
once that's done you can configure your git to use ssh instead https
If you are using Mac OX. you can run vim ~/.gitconfig and add

For HTTPS private gitlab repo, @Rick Smith's answer is enough. Here's a compensation for HTTP repo, first run the command:
then use below go get command to get the golang project:

For the record, this works outside of go using gitlab 7.3.2 and, as JimB has observed, can be used as a workaround. I find that i do get prompted for username/password, even though an SSH key is registered with gitlab:
Alternatively i can use the SSH equivalent which, since i have an SSH key registered with gitlab, avoids the prompts:
Neither works with go currently. A fix may be in 7.9 but i haven't had a chance to test it: upcoming bugfix

Just a heads up. Although the bug was closed, the issue still remains. – James Fremen Apr 22 '15 at 16:52
@JamesFreman I'm on gitlab 8.2, and still getting http urls. Any idea what is going on? – captncraig Dec 15 '15 at 20:17
From dep version 5.2, dep supports private repositories for Gitlab private repositories.
On .netrc file, you can provide your Gitlab username and access token for accessing private repositories.

He is talking about gitlab, not github. Gitlab is an open source project for private repository hosting. – captncraig Apr 18 '15 at 3:26

We’d love to understand your experience with GitLab’s documentation: Take the 3-minute survey!
GitLab allows Owners to set a project’s visibility as:
These visibility levels affect who can see the project in the public access directory (/public for your GitLab instance). For example, https://gitlab.com/public. You can control the visibility of individual features with project feature settings.
Public projects can be cloned without any authentication over HTTPS.
They are listed in the public access directory (/public) for all users.
Any signed-in user has the Guest role on the repository.
By default, /public is visible to unauthenticated users. However, if the Public visibility level is restricted, /public is visible only to signed-in users.
Internal projects can be cloned by any signed-in user except external users.
They are also listed in the public access directory (/public), but only for signed-in users.
Any signed-in users except external users have the Guest role on the repository.
From July 2019, the Internal visibility setting is disabled for new projects, groups, and snippets on GitLab.com. Existing projects, groups, and snippets using the Internal visibility setting keep this setting. You can read more about the change in the relevant issue.
Private projects can only be cloned and viewed by project members (except for guests).
They appear in the public access directory (/public) for project members only.
You can restrict the use of visibility levels for users when they create a project or a snippet. This is useful to prevent users from publicly exposing their repositories by accident. The restricted visibility settings do not apply to admin users.
