According to google.protobuf.FieldDescriptorProto.default_value documentation: >>> For strings, contains the default text contents (not escaped in any way). For bytes, contains the C escaped value. All bytes >= 128 are escaped. <<< Thus, use the default value ad-verbatim if the kind is a string. For the bytes kind, we use the text format hack to unescape the string, since the text format uses the same unescape syntax as C due to its heritage.

Next Generation Go Protocol Buffers
WARNING: This repository is in active development. There are no guarantees about API stability. Breaking changes will occur until a stable release is made and announced.
This repository is for the development of the next major Go implementation of protocol buffers. This library makes breaking API changes relative to the existing Go protobuf library. Of particular note, this API aims to make protobuf reflection a first-class feature of the API and implements the protobuf ecosystem in terms of reflection.
