The official path for Go application source is %GOPATH%/src/ and not having the project there will cause a lack of support for some tools like dep https://github.com/golang/dep

   I see that this repository appveyor.yml already has custom clone folder set. What else can we do besides exposing the ability to set custom clone folder?

   Hi, the fact is that src/project/ is the default for a Go project and lots of users will end using it, what about by default having that if is a go project and in case, let the user change with the option you mentioned?

   I would rather document it and other Go-specific tricks on our documentation site, under STACKS section. You are welcome to contribute :)
