On create github release entry is created email notification to those whom have set in your repo the web UI Watch->Releases.
gh release can contain additional comments (li changelog) or additional assets like release tar balls (by default it contains only assets from git tag) however all those part are not obligatory.
In simplest variant gh release can be empty because subiekt of the sent email contains git tag name.

I'm asking because my automation process uses those email notifications by trying to make preliminary automated upgrades of building packages, which allows saving some time on maintaining packaging procedures.
Probably other people may be interested to be instantly informed about release new version as well.

Documentation and examples of generate gh releases:

This is not something I have any time or motivation to care about.

I use zest.releaser to make releases. If there's a plugin for that you want to point me to, then when I have time I'll look at that.

I understand that. This is why I've added some links showing how to automate that as already gh actions/workflows are used in this repo.
gh release can be generated even with empty comment because details about new versions in email notification is added OOTB.
