Changing vim defaults for editing Go files

I am using vim to edit Go language files. vim does something that I find really irritating, but that I do not know how to override.

When I add a line like

import (

vim automatically inserts several tab characters in the next line, leaving the cursor at the end of those characters.

I hate that. I would like to have a single tab character, not several. Or even nothing at all. Anybody know how to change this behavior? This may be silly of me, but if I cannot change that I'd rather use a less clever and proactive editor.
