What to do when a dependency revision is removed?

I may be using godep wrong, but the README doesn't really explain how to work with this tool. I saved all the dependencies successfully a while ago using godep save. But as some of the repositories have been moved, I can't execute godep update or restore anymore.

ATM you need to manually prune out the olds locations and then godep save the new deps. You may be able to get away with doing a godep restore, blowing away $project/Godeps, updating the deps in your code and doing a new godep save. Or at least that's what I would try first.

It sounds very unreasonable. If you had a working tree once and you saved it, then at least on the technical level you have everything you need to deploy your project and update specific packages. Why the hassle? Also, godep doesn't tell you what dependencies are missing, I just receive random errors.

for instance:
godep restore
godep: unable to detect version control system for code.google.com/ path
