I'm not doing anything special I'd be aware of, only C-p R to (re)build
the TAGS file.

It isn't --- the code is available here: https://github.com/Ratany/SingularityViewer

Projectile recognises the repo as a project and lets me build the TAGS
file.

The compiled version resides in a subdirectory, so it's possible.  I
don't know which files are considered by default when creating the TAGS
file with C-p R.  I only just started trying out projectile; that
compilation results are included would be a bit unexpected.
