Why is this even an issue when upstream provides https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/releases/download/6.12-GE-1/Proton-6.12-GE-1.sha512sum ?
Because upstream, rather than tag a new (or bugfix etc.) release, will delete artefacts and move tags so they point at a different commit.

The "chaotic-aur" co-maintainer is a bot that pulls any merged PR in https://github.com/chaotic-aur/pkgbuild-proton-ge-custom-bin back to this package. So if you guys have contributions or bump versions earlier than the maintainer, please share them as PRs. The commits will keep your authorship.
Happy gaming!
