I very much doubt the GDPR overrides the irrevocable license to redistribute (GPL in this case) that each developer is granting through the act of publishing their code. My understanding is that it regulates all the unpublished, ostensibly private information that the companies you do business with collect about you.
Put another way, wouldn't it be a bit ridiculous if the author of a book demanded that their name be removed from the work years after publishing it? What are libraries supposed to do, dig out all their copies and scribble over the name?
