Does not commit bumped version number in package.json on Bitbucket pipelines

I am having trouble using this in Bitbucket pipeline. It is consistently committing the changelog witout committing the package.json and the bumped version number.(Resulting in the same release version each time). I tried:

• useing barebones configuration to call only standard-version without any flags.
• adding the --commit-all and -a flag
• manually calling git add package.json in precommit and release hook.
• removed all hooks

It works perfectly in local environment, I am not sure what I am missing.

Version: 7.0.0

Release Commit:

Package.json

"scripts": {
    "release": "standard-version --no-verify --prerelease beta"
}, 
...
 "standard-version": {
    "scripts": {
      "postbump": "git add package.json",
      "precommit": "echo \"[skip ci]\""
    },
    "skip": {
      "tag": true
    }
  }

Had the same issue with .gitignore, and to save some time for anyone else having this issue it was that our .gitignore contained the row build to ignore the build folder.

Bitbucket pipeline cloned the repo into /opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build. And the whole folder was ignored including the package.json and package-lock.json files.

Hope it saves some time if anyone else has the same issue.

And this issue could possibly be closed? It would however be an good idea to have an warning message abut any ignored files.
