apt.llvm.org provides nightly builds.
There is no way to exclusively use release builds.

it provides nightly build of the stable branches (currently 19 and 20). it has no difference with tagged releases.

Nightly builds provide not only binaries for tagged releases but also binaries built from selected commits between those releases.

Sure but there isn't any easy/usable way to do real tagged release with Debian repositories.

Exactly. That's why I think a separate repository which provides only tagged releases would be ideal. Alternatively, it would be helpful if you could provide a separate package, such as llvm-20-release, to address this issue.

It is a bunch of work for something that seems niche given the excellent track record of the cherry-pick to the stable branches
