version 5.1.3 broken version bump for internal monorepo packages

Current Behavior

When using version 5.1.3 or above more than half of our packages don’t get their version correctly updated. The UI correctly lists all packages and shows the version correctly (which is misleading) but after checking git status we can see that only 8 packages got updated.

Expected Behavior

All versions get updated in multiple package.json files for each of the packages our monorepo has.

Steps to Reproduce

Unfortunately I don’t have a repro to provide you since our project is not open source. But I have confirmed that until 5.1.2 all our package versions get correctly updated, however from 5.1.3 less than half of the packages get updated.

We ran the following command:

npx lerna version --no-git-tag-version --no-push --no-commit-hooks --loglevel debug --exact 6.0.0

I’ve also tried with different parameters etc but no impact.

in case that helps, the fix was already applied in Lerna-Lite or you could wait for it to be applied here. Nice to see more confirmation of the issue & fix. Thanks
