+-// module empty-mod is an empty module that's used to help with containerd
+-// having a circular dependency on itself through plugin modules.
+-//
+-// We use this module as a "replace" rule in containerd's go.mod, to prevent
+-// relying on transitive dependencies (coming from older versions of containerd
+-// defined on plugin go.mod).
+-//
+-// The replace rule forces go modules to consider the "current" version of
+-// containerd to be the source of truth, helping us catch missing go.mod rules,
+-// or version changes early.
