No, tagging of alpha1 happened on May 11
But the checkout created from those bundles can easily be updated with
the remaining changes.

Depends on your definition of self-sufficient. Depending on your build
configuration different external libraries are built, and the sources
for those would be downloaded during a make fetch stage.

Yes for that, the sources are the same for all platforms.

You just use ./g fetch --tags to update the checkout with the latest
changes and more specifically tell git to also fetch the remote tags.
Then you can checkout the libreoffice-7.6.0.0.alpha1 tag.
