RFE: please start making github releases

[kloczek]

Is it possible next time on release new version make the github release to have entry on https://github.com/csernazs/pytest-httpserver/releases entries? 🤔

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 https://github.com/marketplace/actions/github-release

Hi @kloczek,

I think creating releases sounds reasonable and doable, altough the sdist is also available in pypi.

This is not 100% clear for me:

Could you please clarify this a bit?

Also, I see you opened quite a bunch of tickets on github for other projects with the same request. What is the purpose behind this?

Create GH release spreads notifications to those which have set in your repo watch->release. You don't need to put anything in release message (most of the maintainer makes GH releases with empty content).

I have automation which processes GH release email notifications. This automation tries to upgrade rpm packages in distro on which I;m working. In other words spreading such notifications allow save huge amount of time which not so long time ago was done manually. (in distribution now is 4.6k source packages)
