I think the problem might be
https://github.com/Debian/dh-make-golang/blob/1221041fd15c552f370d14fbb1dc24699d57a467/make.go#L239
— can you try what happens if you just comment out
https://github.com/Debian/dh-make-golang/blob/1221041fd15c552f370d14fbb1dc24699d57a467/make.go#L239-L245
?

If that helps, we should just call git config user.name/user.email when
getDebianName and getDebianEmail return "TODO".
