I've been using a pattern like this for my more complex initialisations:
s, i := make([]T, 0, 6), 0
s = append(s, 1, 2, 3)
//[1 2 3]
fmt.Println(s[i:])
i += 3
s = append(s, 4, 5, 6)
//[4 5 6]
fmt.Println(s[i:])
i += 3 // [etc...]
//[1 2 3 4 5 6]
fmt.Println(s[:])
You can easily make references to each chunk of the slice you append without much difficulty or any re-sizing (the first s[:] will remain a slice of the first 3 items).
