The Emacs manual is written in texinfo format.  You don't see a new texi
file when you build emacs because that file is not generated.  The file
is there already when you download the repository.

The file you browse from within Emacs is the .info file which is
generated from the .texi file.

I think the simple answer is that someone hasn't got around to uploading
the .pdf, .ps.gz and .texi version of the 25.1 manual.
