These steps would be done to release a software normally
- Create a source file which contain version string.
- Increase version number manually, for example, increase 0.1.0 to 0.2.0.
- Rebuild your software and get the target file manually, for example target.hex.
- Append the version number to the target file manually, for example target_0.2.0.hex.

SemVer creates version head file, increases version and appends the version to a file name.
