How to distribute .rpm packages via github?

Hello, I know that to distribute .deb packages, you can use the reprepro utility, which prepares the structure of the repository, and also manages the contents of some files when new versions of packages are added.
I am wondering if there is a similar utility for .rpm packages that will work on Fedora 30? If not, can you write a procedure for placing an .rpm package that contains only binaries on github?
This repository needs to contain the key, and the client system needs to check the repository for updates during the dnf update run.
Thanks to all

No way, Captain Obvious suggests that github is like a remote server for the git repository, and is used to distribute the source code. The most you can do is post links to where you can download the package from.
In general, there are special services for your purpose, for example, ubuntovods use launchpad.

Centos has a createrepo utility, but you also need a web server to serve these files.
