Thanks. A new executable appeared in the src folder: emacs-26.0.50.2

Is this the executable that I need to run to see the changes I made, or can I still run emacs-26.0.50.1?

Generally speaking, whenever I make a change and rebuild, do I need to change the target file that I run (emacs-26.0.50.2, .3, .4, etc.)?

Just "make" should do. Since you are debugging the binary in the
source tree, not the installed binary, "make install" shouldn't be
necessary, AFAIU (but I don't know enough about the intricacies of
macOS installations).
