Semver is generating the same version

We integrated continuous deployment on Nx Plugin ngx-deploy-npm and we’re using Semver and its postTargets feature to trigger the deployment.

For some reason, Semver generates the same version when there is nothing new, you can see it here -> https://github.com/bikecoders/ngx-deploy-npm/runs/4091615454?check_suite_focus=true

This causes an unwanted behavior and an error because the tag already exists on the repo.

✔ bumping version in ./packages/ngx-deploy-npm/package.json from 3.0.4 to 3.0.4
✔ outputting changes to ./packages/ngx-deploy-npm/CHANGELOG.md
✔ committing ./packages/ngx-deploy-npm/package.json and ./packages/ngx-deploy-npm/CHANGELOG.md and all staged files
✔ tagging release v3.0.4
fatal: tag 'v3.0.4' already exists

Command failed: git tag -a v3.0.4 -m chore(release): 3.0.4
fatal: tag 'v3.0.4' already exists

The weird thing is when I run this locally it has the expected behavior, do not generate a version

Been monitoring making use of --base-branch. It worked alright for a few days. Seems that it’s back to giving use the error that tag already exists.

> nx run my-app:version --base=d496cd3ef1 --baseBranch=master --releaseAs=minor 
✔ outputting changes to /builds/apps/my-app/CHANGELOG.md
✔ committing all staged files and %s
Nothing specified, nothing added.
