RFE: please start making github releases

[kloczek]

https://github.com/rfc1036/whois/releases
Is it possible next time on release new version make the github release to have entry on https://github.com/rfc1036/whois/releases? 🤔

I'm asking because only on make gh release is spread notification about new release to those who have set watch->releases.

More about gh releases is possible to find on
https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/managing-releases-in-a-repository

[rfc1036]

Every release is tagged, but manually creating the releases from the web interface looks like a lot of busywork.
Maybe somebody can contribute some automation?

example create release from tag using github action is shown in: https://github.com/maarten-boot/test-scan-only/blob/main/.github/workflows/create-release.yml

Sorry, but I do not care enough to spend my time implementing this. If anybody wants released tarballs then please submit a complete patch.

To implement automated gh release it needs to be somewhere implanted release proces to add necessary modifications.

If anybody wants released tarballs then please submit a complete patch.

This RFE has nothing to to with any tar balls.
It is only about generate gh release which spreads email notification.
