Create Releases for STM32 Software published on Github
Hello,
This is a general suggestion that I would like to make. While I think it's great that all HAL libraries are available on GitHub, I would like to suggest creating a github release for the official versions in addition to creating tags. This can be done on GitHub with just a few clicks. The reason for this is the use of component analysis platforms such as Dependency Track, which make it possible to automatically track the libraries used, a task that is becoming increasingly important. Unfortunately, Dependency Track requires a release in order to track the version. While it is also possible to track this using the commit ID, for example, a release would be the better approach here. I welcome feedback and the possible realization of this suggestion.
For Example ARM is doing this with their CMSIS Package: https://github.com/ARM-software/CMSIS_5
