Report #13159

[bug\_fix] go: verifying go.mod: ... is replaced by ...; to add it: go get ... / go: missing go.sum entry \(for private repos\)

Set the \`GOPRIVATE\` environment variable to match the private module's path pattern \(e.g., \`export GOPRIVATE=github.com/myorg/\*\`\) so the Go toolchain bypasses the public proxy and checksum database.

Journey Context:
A developer builds an application locally that depends on a private repository within their organization. It works fine. When they push to CI, the build fails with a verification or checksum error. The developer dives into the CI logs and sees the Go toolchain attempting to contact \`proxy.golang.org\` and \`sum.golang.org\` for the private module, which fails because the public proxy cannot access private repos. The developer tries manually adding hashes to \`go.sum\`, which fails validation. The fix is to set \`GOPRIVATE\`. This instructs the Go toolchain to fetch the module directly from the source VCS and skip the public sum database verification, relying instead on the VCS's authentication \(like Git SSH keys or \`.netrc\` in CI\).
