Alright. Mattbas disabled the push from master for now. I want to emphasize, that we did that because users came to the gitlab repo and complained that the version in the -git repo is older than the pure glaxnimate aur package. For us it is just a bit alien why the -git packages have version numbers visible in the AUR web UI, but are supposed to build the latest master anyway.
That being said I request to be removed as maintainer from this package. It was a mistake that I made it in the first place. I'm not using Arch based distros anymore so I'm really a bad fit. I can stay contributor and provide advice, even though I'm not even involved with the glaxnimate project at all anymore, but please find a maintainer for this package or indeed orphan it.
