Except for one step. If the dependency is updated to a newer major version, make sure to follow up changes in the root import paths of those libs. I suggest using the tool named `mod` to upgrade it: https://github.com/marwan-at-work/mod If you need to use a fork of a dependency, add it to `go.mod` either manually or by running the following command: ```sh go mod edit -replace {{ dependency_name }}={{ fork_name }}@{{ fork_version }} ``` In a nutshell, it is needed to tell apart major version changes. Their import paths are different because those are incompatible. See more: https://blog.golang.org/v2-go-modules Thus, when we are releasing v8.0.0, we need to change the import path again. The tool named mod is going to be useful for us in this case, too.

In most cases rebasing will lead to conflicts. Possible sources of conflicts: 1. New import path conflicts with the old. To resolve it switch every `github.com/elastic/beats` import to `github.com/elasitc/beats/v7`. 2. A new dependency has been added or existing was updated. Update the dependency using go modules. - [Golang blog: Using Go modules](https://blog.golang.org/using-go-modules) - [Golang wiki](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules) elastic#15868 (cherry picked from commit 95626b8)
