Ability to only github release in a monorepo

[AlexandrosMelissas]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have a monorepo with turborepo, lerna (for releases) and auto. I only want to make git tags and releases with conventional commits and not publish in npm. So far, when i use only the "git-tag" and "conventional-commits" plugins and i use auto shipit in my github actions workflow, i only get versioning for the root e.x. v1.0.2 instead of app1@1.0.2, app2@1.0.2 etc.

I fixed that by using npm plugin with forcePublish: false and not using "git-tag" plugin and having private:true in all my package.json files. Now auto shipit properly uses lerna.json and tags independently as it should. The problem now is that it wont create the github releases (i guess because it wont publish anything to npm). Is there a way to create the github releases without publishing to npm?

Describe the solution you'd like

Maybe some sort of auto shipit --force-release ?

Describe alternative solutions

Make git-tag plugin work with monorepos.
