The go command only applies replace directives from the main module's go.mod file. In this example, replace directives in your module B would be applied, but replace directives in A (or any other dependency) would be ignored. This is important for avoiding conflicts that can't easily be resolved (for example, you depend on X and Y, and they both depend on incompatible forked versions of Z).
The command 'go list -m -json $modulepath' shows information about any module you depend on. In the output, the Replace field will be set if the module is replaced.
