semantic-release not updating package.json in a mono repo

[ArtursTimofejevs]

Hello!

Hope everyone is doing well on this Friday.

Let us jump into it!

We have a mono repo setup that uses semantic-release-monorepo package to update versioning depending if a package folder was changed. But I have set everything up and it seems like when I run pnpm publish it tells me that there are still commits left when the semantic-release job is complete.

error:

Run pnpm run publish:packages

> @org/app publish:packages /home/runner/work/
> pnpm publish --filter ./packages/*

 ERR_PNPM_GIT_UNCLEAN  Unclean working tree. Commit or stash changes first.

If you want to disable Git checks on publish, set the "git-checks" setting to "false", or run again with "--no-git-checks".
 ELIFECYCLE  Command failed with exit code 1.
Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

Heres my .release.yml

branches:
    - master
debug: false
ci: true
plugins:
    - '@semantic-release/commit-analyzer'
    - '@semantic-release/release-notes-generator'
    - - '@semantic-release/git'
      - assets:
            - dist/**/*.{js,css}
            - docs
            - package.json
        message: |-
            chore(release): ${nextRelease.version} [skip ci]
            ${nextRelease.notes}

            - name: Publish
              run: pnpm run publish:packages

scripts

# release
pnpm -r --workspace-concurrency=1 exec -- npx --no-install semantic-release -e semantic-release-monorepo
# publish
pnpm publish --filter ./packages/* 

In the end, can't publish because commits to packages were not made it seems, unless I've done this completley wrong. Been at this issue for a week now and I'm at my witts end because I have a smaller mono-repo where I tested the results first before making it in our main repository and it works.

Much appriciated

Sometimes you are the god coder, other times you are a moron.

My .releaserc.yml was actually named releaserc.yml

All that precious time... At Least I learned alot about semantic-release
