installing extensions from vscode shell generate fatal errors

I am encountering an error when trying to install extensions from vscode on Windows 10 x64.

For instance, when I start up vscode, in the bottom right notification area, I see "Analysis Tools Missing". Clicking on this generates an info bar "Some Go analysis tools are missing from your GOPATH. Would you like to install them?"

Hitting the install button generates errors:

Installing 1 tool gotests

Installing github.com/cweill/gotests/... FAILED

1 tools failed to install.

gotests: Error: Command failed: C:\Go\bin\go.exe get -u -v github.com/cweill/gotests/... github.com/cweill/gotests (download)

cd C:\Users\jchat\Documents\Projects\go\src\github.com\cweill\gotests;

git submodule update --init --recursive

fatal: 'submodule' appears to be a git command, but we were not able to execute it. Maybe git-submodule is broken?

package github.com/cweill/gotests: exit status 128

...

I can execute the command go get -u -v github.com/cweill/gotests/ successfully from Git Bash outside of vscode

Is there some configuration I am missing to get this working seamlessly?

Did you try running go get -u -v github.com/cweill/gotests/... ? Don't forget the ... at the end. The ... (ellipsis) tells go get to also fetch the package's sub-packages and its dependencies.

Do you have the $GOPATH/src/github.com/cweill/gotests folder? If yes, you can try deleting it.
