Yes, INSTALL now says near its beginning:

  This file contains general information on building GNU Emacs.  If you
  are building an Emacs release tarball on a Unix or a GNU system, the
  instructions in this file should be sufficient.  For other
  configurations, we have additional specialized files:

    . INSTALL.REPO if you build from a Git checkout
    . nt/INSTALL if you build for MS-Windows
    . nextstep/INSTALL if you build for GNUstep/macOS
    . java/INSTALL if you build for Android
    . msdos/INSTALL if you build for MS-DOS
