In Windows, if you have configured proxy for connecting Internet, then executing “go get” command may get error, like this:
C:\Users\xiaona>go get -v gopkg.in/fatih/pool.v2
Fetching https://gopkg.in/fatih/pool.v2?go-get=1
https fetch failed.

package gopkg.in/fatih/pool.v2: unrecognized import path "gopkg.in/fatih/pool.v2

The solution is set “http_proxy” and/or “https_proxy” environment variables according to your reality need:
C:\Users\xiaona>set https_proxy=https://web-proxy.corp.xx.com:8080/
C:\Users\xiaona>set http_proxy=https://web-proxy.corp.xx.com:8080/
C:\Users\xiaona>go get -v gopkg.in/fatih/pool.v2
