`go build` will automatically download module dependencies. In many
cases, that is a much smaller set of modules than what is downloaded by
`go mod download`.
Using the https://github.com/github/github-mcp-server Go application as
an example below.
Size of GOMODCACHE with `go mod download`:
$ go clean -i -r -cache -modcache
$ go mod download
$ du -sh ~/go/pkg/mod
