Can't vendor this repo

[kevinburke]

I am trying to vendor the aws-vault command. As I understand it it's impossible to vendor the v5.x line of Git tags.

If I add

	github.com/99designs/aws-vault v5.4.4

to my go.mod file and then run go mod vendor, I get this error:

require github.com/99designs/aws-vault: version "v5.4.4" invalid: module contains a go.mod file, so major version must be compatible: should be v0 or v1, not v5

This error message is rather unhelpfully explained here: golang/go#35732

The error message is correct. See https://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Module_compatibility_and_semantic_versioning.

The v1.9.1-0.[…] version string is a pseudo-version generated from the requested commit.

From the perspective of the go command, this is working as designed.

So it seems like you're supposed to put the source code in a folder labeled "v5", I think? I don't really know how this is supposed to work, but I'd like to be able to vendor the project at the latest version...

Never mind, got it sorted... needed this

	github.com/99designs/aws-vault/v6 v6.0.0-beta5

and then also update code references to "aws-vault/v6".

Note that the API is not stable, it's there to serve the aws-vault CLI only
