After the final slash, dots are %-escaped when constructing a symbol name, so that in the actual symbol table, the import path githost.com/my.git becomes githost.com/my%2egit. In this case, -X githost.com/my.git.Value=foo needs to set githost.com/my%2egit.Value. This is a detail of the object format and not something users should know or depend on, so apply the escaping as needed. People who have run across this already and figured out and started using the escaped forms with -X will find those forms not working anymore. That is, -X githost.com/my%2egit.Value=foo is the Go 1.7 workaround but will stop working in Go 1.8 once this proper fix is in place. People who need to keep scripts working with older and newer versions of Go can safely pass both forms, and one will be ignored: -X githost.com/my%2egit.Value=foo -X githost.com/my.git.Value=foo Fixes #16710.
