Cannot access github releases for a repo, via web UI

Question

I'm looking to test out github releases.

The guidance says:

On GitHub, navigate to the main page of the repository.

To the right of the list of files, click Releases or Latest release.

However, when I do this there is no "Releases" or "Latest release" button.

Is there some obvious configuration I need to do to the repo first?

Answer 1

1. Click on "tag" (you will find it at top left next to branches or search for it using Ctrl-F tag )
   or simply go to https://github.com/USERNAME/REPO/releases .
2. Click on "Draft a new release" .
3. Follow the guidance from step 4 .
