This means that `golang` hooks cannot be installed anymore:\r\n\r\n```\r\n$ pre-commit install-hooks\r\n[INFO] Initializing environment for local.\r\n[INFO] Installing environment for local.\r\n[INFO] Once installed this environment will be reused.\r\n[INFO] This may take a few minutes...\r\nAn unexpected error has occurred: CalledProcessError: command: ('/usr/local/bin/go', 'get', './...')\r\nreturn code: 1\r\nexpected return code: 0\r\nstdout: (none)\r\nstderr:\r\n    go: no module declaration in go.mod.

This [Go Wiki entry](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules#can-an-additional-gomod-exclude-unnecessary-content-do-modules-have-the-equivalent-of-a-gitignore-file) seems to suggest that empty `go.mod` files are legal, but maybe it's outdated...
