Hi @melanorian, does this tutorial help? https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/managing-releases-in-a-repository?tool=webui.

I made this issue with @melanorian

It's not so much about using the technical aspect of tags, but rather how to use tags in context of versioning research software:

• At what interval does it make sense to create a new tag
• What sort of naming scheme do you use for tagging research software
• How do you refer to a specific version of the software in research papers
• how do you actually tag using github/github desktop/bash

So really it is more tutorial on using tags for researchers
