Why there is a new "latest" docker image tag create 16h ago if the latest github tag if from 2021?

The docker image with the tag "latest" is built daily.

This behavior is misleading IMO. It should be built only if there is new code added to the repo. From what I can see, the last commit was 4+ month ago.
If you want a daily build, call it nightly or daily. It will be much more descriptive.

FYI for the majority of cases in docker hub, "latest" tag is the same with the latest released tag.
In my case, this is the very first time I'm seeing "latest" tag being a daily build. That is why I've asked the question in the first place.

I use
image: willfarrell/autoheal:1.2.0
for my compose
