[ I would've answered earlier, but prep work for Hurricane Dorian took some focus. ]
ok, there are a few questions here.. and my answers will be an educated speculation based on observation, since I've never questioned the man's methods.
> There are only Tags up until v0.70.6 on the https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80. Why is that?
I assume this question is in regards to what you find here [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/releases ]. If you notice he associates milestones [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/milestones ] in his workflow and that currently there are no more open bugs left for the 0.70.2 milestone tag. If I were him, since it seems we share similar workflows, this would mean that there are no valid reasons left to focus on the 0.70.2 [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/milestone/24 ] milestone over the 0.80 [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/milestone/25 ] milestone release.
> How does one know those builds are compiled from https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80 anyway?
Simple enough - https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/issues/870
> How does one get the source to the specific release without the tags?
Code's being committed to the Master branch. From the 0.70.6 release page [ https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/releases/tag/v0.70.6 ] you can see how many commits have been made since that tagged release.
