How do I make updates available (updates) for a Wordpress plugin I developed?
Can you do this with Github? Or is it only possible by official directory?

Here are the tools I’ve tested to do this:
Yahniselsts/wp-update-server
A custom update API for Wordpress plugins and themes. Intended to be used in Conjunction with my plugin-update-Checker library.thomasgriffin/TGM-Updater
This class has been tested and Works with Both regular and Multisite installs, and it Even Works with services like Managewp!Yahniselsts/plugin-update-Checker
A custom update Checker for Wordpress plugins. Ufseful if you can’t or don’t want to host your plugin in the Official WP plugin Repository, but would still like it to support Automatic plugin updates.jeremyclark13/Automatic-Theme-plugin-update
Self Hosted plugin and Theme update scripts
The one I ended up using was Yahnis Elsts, but I used to updates right on my server. I think for Github it has to be another. You need to test what works best in your case.

did not understand your question... you want to update a plugin that was never made available?
– Caio Felipe Pereira
The plugin is running on the site, but would like an alternative power, whenever there is an update, I make a commit, instead of uploading the files every time we change it.
