It doesn't look like the files in the repo [1] have changed since I looked at them last. To answer your question, though, I'd personally say, yes, the slur should always include tied notes, before or after. 

That being said, since there appears to be arguments for doing it both ways, I'd recommend that you pick one way and be consistent throughout the entire work.

If you have updated files that haven't yet been committed to the repo you'd like me to look over, let me know when they are available.

Best,

Abraham
