Receive "releases only" notifications for projects that do not contain a release message in their releases

[multlurk]

Please fix this issue "Without adding a message to the release, it only counts as a "tag" and not as a full release". So I'm not getting "releases" notifications for projects that not include a release messages.

Hello there!

Thanks for writing in.

From what you've described, it sounds like this repository is using tags[1] but not releases. We don't currently send release notifications for tags, even with "Watching releases" enabled.

I'm going to note this down as a feature request for team that worked on the notifications option and also feed back how confusing it can be when those tags appear on the "Releases" page. I can't promise if or when such a feature might make an appearance but your feedback is in good hands!

Thanks,
Steve
