Describe the bug

Trying to release, when reaching the tag phase, the process fails because the command is missing the tag message (-m) option.

From the log:

[10:19:43 AM] [semantic-release] › ✖  An error occurred while running semantic-release: Error: Command failed with exit code 1: git tag 2.0.0 86ecbd244b16a1820d3575eaf4c9698b733e2e2a

Expected behavior

I think a feature that allows setting a custom message will be a nice one. But for the time being, perhaps use the tag version as a tag message as well.

Additional context

This issue was originally filed here, But after skipping the action and trying to work directly with the module, I get the same error.

Sorry I closed this by mistake. This is still an issue for me, I also experience the same with private repos.

The common ground is, I think, none of these projects contain a package.json file.
