This plugin just silently quits

[revjtanton]

This was working and now it just stopped. When my previously working pipelines run everything works as it did until this plugin starts...then it just ends. No error, and it even shows that it ran successfully, but no commits are analyzed and no action is taken.

this is my releaserc.yaml

preset: conventionalcommits
tagFormat: "v${version}"

branches:
  - +([0-9])?(.{+([0-9]),x).x}
  - main

plugins:
  - "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer"
  - "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator"
  - "@semantic-release/changelog"
  - "@semantic-release/npm"
  - "@semantic-release/git"

verifyConditions:
  - "@semantic-release/changelog"
  - "@semantic-release/npm"
  - "@semantic-release/git"

analyzeCommits:
  - path: "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer"

generateNotes:
  - path: "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator"

prepare:
  - path: "@semantic-release/changelog"
    changelogFile: "CHANGELOG.md"
  - path: "@semantic-release/npm"
  - path: "@semantic-release/git"

I am running this in Jenkins via docker so it runs like this:

                            git config --global --add safe.directory ${WORKSPACE}
                            git config --global user.email "${userEmail}"
                            git config --global user.name "${userName}"
                            export GH_TOKEN=${GH_TOKEN}
                            export GH_URL=https://github.*****/api/v3 
                            npx semantic-release --debug

Now there are a lot of backed up commits (25) since this started silently failing so I'm not going to put the entire output here, but here's what I mean by silently failing/stopping:

[6:08:23 PM] [semantic-release] › ℹ  Start step "analyzeCommits" of plugin "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer"
[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // withCredentials

[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // stage
[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // withEnv
[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // withCredentials
[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // node
[Pipeline] End of Pipeline

I'm tearing my hair out debugging...any advice, guidance, or help would be greatly appreciated!

I did see this issue #177 but have ruled that out. I have tried the --no-ci flag and that did not change anything.

though it looked like this plugin was the culprit, I do not believe that it is. it looks like the issue is coming from somewhere else.

I had the same issue since 28.08.2023, when we had several semantic release plugins upgraded (commit-analyzer included). After several tests it actually turned out that the issue is coming from the version of conventional-changelog-conventionalcommits, which we upgraded from 6.1.0 to 7.0.1. Rolled back to 6.1.0 fixed the issue.
