from afdko.
The GITHUB repository for the AFDK is the one and only official source for the OpenSource AFDKO tools and sources, now and going forwards. Fixing these sources with push and issue requests is not only useful, it is the only place where fixes will be maintained.
Since most type designers are not technically oriented enough to build the AFDKO tools from sources, Adobe provides an installable download of the AFDKO, with everything already built. This download is likely to get updated only a few times year. When it is rebuilt, it will be built from the current state of the GitHub repository. There will be no separate development branch for the download from the Adobe site.
I will amend the documentation to make this clear.

Thanks very much for the clarification, and TIA for the upcoming clarification in the documentation.

@readroberts I think it would be helpful to have those downloads in the Releases page of the repository as well. But first you should add tags to some of the commits.
