I use yay to install and upgrade packages. After a package is installed, if I try to upgrade it, I get:
-> error fetching yay: fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
context: exit status 128
This prints for all installed AUR packages.
When I check their directories in ~/.cache/yay/, I see that they all have .git folders. If I delete ~/.cache/yay and its subdirectories, I'm able to install the latest version of all packages without issue. I'm still at a loss after trying everything I can find through the search.
yay -P --defaultconfig

(redacted idea that now seems irrelevant)
