Registrator does not tag your repository, because it does not have write permissions (there were concerns about giving that permission to Registrator).  
So with this, you install it, and then proceed to register packages as per usual with Registrator. When the PR that Registrator made is merged, TagBot will create a GitHub release. That is all.

TLDR:

- TagBot does not update your Project.toml
- TagBot does not register your packages for you
- TagBot does not use Registrator for you
- TagBot **DOES** create GitHub releases for you after you have used Registrator to register your package
