A few questions on the patchset.

- What if the module doesn't use any proxy? (E.g. hosted in a private repository)

The gomodgit fetcher is for git repositories that needs to use the direct mode.

(Cf. https://go.dev/ref/mod#private-module-proxy-direct)

- The current recipetool approach ( https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/scripts/lib/recipetool/create_go.py ) uses vendoring approach and all dependencies go into the SRC_URI. Thus it's required to populate the required license information for the manifest generation. Would that be possible with this fetcher as well?

Yes, there would be no change when creating or updating the ${BPN}-licenses.inc

file compared to the vendoring approach. And then the gomod:// and gomodgit://

URLs would go into ${BPN}-modules.inc.
