I have the same kind of setup at my company, and we use go modules in the
same way that we would use public modules. We periodically do a "go get -u"
to update them. Jenkins does that once a week, so at worst, we're a week
behind. If someone needs to manually pull in changes more urgently, they
can just run the "go get" themselves and commit go.mod and go.sum. It works
well. Don't be too smart with this stuff, and just let the module system
work as intended. When you use private repos, it's a pain in the butt to
have the auth work, but it sounds like you've got that solved.
