How do I use Go with Bitbucket private repositories?

We are using private Bitbucket repositories to manage our Go libraries. By using the insteadOf config for git as described e.g. in this Stackoverflow answer, we had a working build up to Go version 1.12. Versions 1.13 and 1.14 do not work any more. We are seeing errors like this:

$ go vet ./...
go: downloading bitbucket.org/travelloapp/golibs v1.0.42
usercache/usercache.go:6:2: bitbucket.org/travelloapp/[email protected]: verifying module: bitbucket.org/travelloapp/[email protected]: reading https://sum.golang.org/lookup/bitbucket.org/travelloapp/[email protected]: 410 Gone
        server response:
        not found: bitbucket.org/travelloapp/[email protected]: reading https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/travelloapp/golibs?fields=scm: 403 Forbidden
                server response: Access denied. You must have write or admin access.

The Go FAQ proposes to set up curl's ~/.netrc file. I've done that, using Bitbucket's "App Password" feature. It is not changing the result. I have added both bitbucket.org and api.bitbucket.org as host names.

I can test the file setup is correct with curl directly:

$ curl -n https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/travelloapp/golibs?fields=scm
{"scm": "git"}

For the record: despite the Bitbucket error message. repository read access seems to be the only permission required, although I have tried with all permissions enabled as well.

Am I missing something? Why did the approach that works for Go 1.12 stop working for higher versions?

I'm currently using:

$ go version
go version go1.14.2 linux/amd64
$ git version
git version 2.17.1
$ curl --version
curl 7.58.0 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.58.0 OpenSSL/1.1.1 zlib/1.2.11 libidn2/2.0.4 libpsl/0.19.1 (+libidn2/2.0.4) nghttp2/1.30.0 librtmp/2.3
Release-Date: 2018-01-24
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap ldaps pop3 pop3s rtmp rtsp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp 
Features: AsynchDNS IDN IPv6 Largefile GSS-API Kerberos SPNEGO NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz TLS-SRP HTTP2 UnixSockets HTTPS-proxy PSL

We encountered the issue first when Go 1.13 came out, at the moment we are still holding all environments back on 1.12.

Since [email protected] to have a behavior similar to previous versions, you need to set GOPRIVATE environmental variable for private repositories
