lerna version --conventional-graduate does not generate correct changelog

[gbublys]

Current Behavior

We have a setup of two branches: main and development. The development branch is used to push latest changes and triggers version updates like so:

npx lerna version --conventional-commits --conventional-prerelease --preid dev --yes

The command is working great, as expected. However once we are done with our desired changes, we want to push the development branch into the main branch, which afterwards trigger the following command:

npx lerna version --conventional-commits --conventional-graduate --yes

However, the command even though is referencing the right latest release tag - is not picking up the changelog correctly and as a result dumps into the changelog the following message:

0.9.0
Note: Version bump only for package @fee/foo

Expected Behavior

We are expecting the command to pick all the changes since the last main's branch tag that were merged and generate changelog which consists of semantic commit messages:

0.9.0
Features
* Added foo feature
* Added fee feature

Steps to Reproduce

I have created a test repository which you should be able to access here: https://github.com/gbublys/semantic-versioned-monorepo-setup

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new branch based from the development branch
2. Push the changes into the new branch with semantic commit message
3. Create a merge request into the develop branch
4. Merge the changes, wait for the release pipeline to generate new versions
5. Create a PR from development to main and merge it
6. Wait for the release pipeline to graduate packages and sync-up development branch
7. Expect CHANGELOG.md files containing no commit messages, but bump only messages

[gbublys]

It seems like I was able to resolve issue by adding --include-merged-tags option to release command:

npx lerna version --conventional-commits --conventional-graduate --yes --include-merged-tags

I will run more tests before closing the issue

Edit: It does not work.
