If bored you can even automate that:

# curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: $TOKEN" -q -X POST --form "file=@/tmp/stupidfile2" 'https://salsa.debian.org/api/v4/projects/formorer%2Ftestrepo/uploads' 2>/dev/null | jq '.'                                                                   
{
  "alt": "stupidfile2",
  "url": "/uploads/eed5461d41fbce6b2b865eaf5a201290/stupidfile2",
  "markdown": "[stupidfile2](/uploads/eed5461d41fbce6b2b865eaf5a201290/stupidfile2)"
}

# curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: $TOKEN" -q -X POST -F "tag_name=2.0" -F 'description=* [stupidfile2](/uploads/eed5461d41fbce6b2b865eaf5a201290/stupidfile2)' 'https://salsa.debian.org/api/v4/projects/formorer%2Ftestrepo/repository/tags/2.0/release'

 {"tag_name":"2.0","description":"* [stupidfile2](/uploads/eed5461d41fbce6b2b865eaf5a201290/stupidfile2)"}%

which results in:
