How to efficiently concatenate strings in go

In Go, a string is a primitive type, which means it is read-only, and every manipulation of it will create a new string.

So if I want to concatenate strings many times without knowing the length of the resulting string, what’s the best way to do it?

The naive way would be:

var s string
for i := 0; i < 1000; i++ {
    s += getShortStringFromSomewhere()
}
return s

but that does not seem very efficient.
