Difference between version 7.28.1 and 7.29.0 when doing `semantic-release publish`

The problem

I am taking semantic release in use at first and when use version 7.28.1 on my project and run: semantic-release publish -v DEBUG --noop, I see something like this:

debug: evaluate_version_bump -> minor
debug: get_new_version(0.1.0, 'minor', False)
debug: get_new_version -> 0.2.0
debug: get_repository_owner_and_name()
debug: get_repository_owner_and_name -> ('tatu-aalto', 'failures-analysis')
debug: Running publish on branch main
debug: checkout(main)
debug: checkout -> M    poetry.lock
debug: M        pyproject.toml
debug: M        utest/test_similarity.py
debug: Your branch is ahead of 'upstream/main' by 1 commit.
debug:   (use "git push" to publish your local commits)
warning: No operation mode. Should have bumped from 0.1.0 to 0.2.0

Which is what I did expect to see. But when I run same command by using 7.29.0 I see

debug: Ignoring UnknownCommitMessageStyleError: Unable to parse the given commit message: Initial commit
debug: Commits found since last release: 56
debug: evaluate_version_bump -> minor
debug: get_new_version(0.1.0, '7.29.0', 'minor', False)

and then program exists with return code 1. The full log with version 7.29.0, can be found from GitHub actions.

Expected behavior

I did 7.29.0 and 7.28.1 work in similar way.

Additional context

I did run the code with debugger and 7.29.0 fails on some sanity check and that code was added by https://github.com/relekang/python-semantic-release/pull/435 but can not figure out how it should be fixed.

Version 7.29.0 is also broken for me.

I do not anymore have an issue with the release. Most likely it is fixed in some version, therefore closing the issue.
