When go asks the GORPOXY for a zip file, it only wants that zip file and not its dependencies.

go get, however, attempts to recursively download all dependencies.

Is there a reason not to have a flag that makes go get just download the code (.info, go.mod, and .zip) of a package and not its dependencies? I saw that -m does not allow download/install, but it does not create a .zip file inside the mod/cache/download directory.

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

Tip

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

No

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

Actually, though the two issues are unrelated, Russ's comments in #26600 (comment) potentially addresses my issue above.

I believe #26577 is the same as this one so I'll close for now and if they diverged I'll reopen. Thanks @ianlancetaylor !
