Because that repository doesn't actually have any releases. It only has tags that GitHub is presenting in the releases page.

For a more clear example, see:

https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/releases

Which has both releases and tags showing on that page, but the API only shows the releases:

https://api.github.com/repos/hashicorp/terraform/releases
