How to create release from tag that will show on the releases list?

Question

I added some tags through git (command-line) and tried to create a release that will show under "releases", but unfortunately every time I create a release it will always show up in "tags".

I used the command-line to create 3 tags: v0.1 (from an old commit) v0.1.1 (from another old commit) v0.1.2 (from another old commit) Every time I create a release and add an existing tag the release won't show up.

As mentioned in one of the comments, git doesn't have a concept of releases, just tags. You can name your tags like release_xyz if you want.
