- SDL_GameControllerDB was transferred from gabomdq/ to mdqinc/ - the old path resolves only through github's transfer redirect, which stops working if a repo is ever created at the old location

src/mappings.his generated, but regeneration is manual —update_mappingsonly runs whensomeone remembers. The last commit that actually changed the data is afa78b4 (2021-08-01).
The practical result is that devices needing no new code, only a newer database, report
glfwJoystickIsGamepad() == false: master carries 885 unique GUIDs against ~1765 upstreamentries the parser can consume.
This adds a scheduled workflow that runs the existing
update_mappingscommand and opens aPR when the regenerated file differs. Nothing about the current design changes: no network
access during a normal build,
mappings.hstays committed, and every update is still areviewed PR. Only the trigger becomes automatic.
