Description
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.

Then determine where pytest-timeout's release process is defined and what automation would be needed; done would mean a documented, working path that publishes a GitHub release alongside the package release.
