  Description     : This fork of github.com/karlsegiun/ccache exists only so 
that LaunchDarkly Go SDK code can import ccache without a /v2 import path 
suffix, as long as the Go SDK must still support non-module package managers.

 CCache
 .
 This fork of the original CCache (https://github.com/karlseguin/ccache),
 a concurrent LRU cache written in Go, exists only to support the build
 requirements of the LaunchDarkly Go SDK. Changes in this fork should
 *not* be submitted upstream.
 .
 Specifically, the issue is that the LaunchDarkly Go SDK (in major
 versions up to and including v5) explicitly supports use by applications
 that use non-module-compatible package managers such as dep instead of Go
 modules. This means that there cannot be any dependencies that are
 modules with a major version greater than 1, because they would have a
 /vN major version suffix in their import paths, which dep and similar
 tools do not understand. This fork simply removes the /v2 path suffix
 from ccache and resets the major version to 1.
 .
 The versioning of this package starts at v1.1.0, to avoid confusion with
 the versioning of the original repository which had 1.0.0 and 1.0.1
 releases.
 .
 For all other information about this package, see the original
 repository.
