What did you do?

Updated to latest version of Go, although issue presented on 1.14.4 first.
Opened a project in Intellij IDEA that was working on Go 1.13 and tried to Run/Debug/Test.
Also tried Goland,VSCode and go cmds from the terminal. All ended with the same result.

What did you expect to see?

The application compiling and running correctly.
Or
Tests running correctly.

What did you see instead?

Frequent non-completion of compile process for both Run and Debug
Test stuck at initialising stage and not completing.

Additional Context

While I can repeat this pretty much every time with some existing projects, it is hard to do so with a fresh project.

The problem will occur 9 times out of 10 and there doesn't appear to be a consistent way of getting round it. Occasionally rerunning will be enough for it to work, sometimes closing and reopening the IDE will help; but more often than not nothing works.

After doing a bit of research I came across this issue: census-instrumentation/opencensus-go#1200

Which pointed me to the fact that calls to go get were effectively timing out, but updating Git resolved this.

I then tried go build -x to get additional output and it appears to be stuck at this step:
