asks gitlab username and password without any reason.... about yay

[D33M0N]

btw. AUR package maintainer for jstest-gtk-git does say, "you are using old PKGBUILD" ... but that's the one yay is using ... even with "clean build", but I guess this only affects the "git PKGBUILD", not the AUR PKGBUILD. -- but yay reports "PKGBUILD up to date, skipping download: jstest-gtk-git" (for AUR package) <-- maybe there's your error. How do you check it? How about you download it every single time no matter what just to be sure, if your checking method fails?

Comment from AUR maintainer:
that's not the latest commit when I click on the links here. The log shows commit dbbf3df as the second-to-latest, and the latest one is from September, a few months ago: 2eb6b1a. This one still points url to the non-existing gitlab repository, but the source is correctly fetching from github.
