Is it possible to add the --debug arg to be passed to semantic-release?

The semantic-release command has a --debug arg that can be passed to it. Is there any way to have debug output from msr or semantic-release?

I'm noticing strange behaviour from msr where it just hangs forever, but randomly works as well. So I'm trying to find out what the issue is.

[antongolub]

I think we could add standard debugging mechanics.

What about the hanging behaviour? could it be related to --execasync that's mentioned in the README?

Here's a good example . As you can see the first command completes successfully in 6 seconds. I then instantly run the command again and it hangs for around 3 mins before I interrupt the command.

It looks like semrel hangs right after resolving its config. Could you enable debug?

Output debugging information. This can also be enabled by setting the DEBUG environment variable to semantic-release:*

It's very interesting what happens here:

  // Verify config
  await verify(context);

  options.repositoryUrl = await getGitAuthUrl({...context, branch: {name: ciBranch}});
  context.branches = await getBranches(options.repositoryUrl, ciBranch, context);
  context.branch = context.branches.find(({name}) => name === ciBranch);

First attempt straight after I read your comment worked.

Then the next attempt hung, but it seems like it went a bit further. See the output below.

[antongolub]

Nothing comes to mind. Perhaps the problem relates shared streams and process spawns. We'll experiment with that anyway.

@musaabal-okaidi

I've added sequential-init flag to avoid hypothetical concurrent initialization collisions.
Canary build: @qiwi/multi-semantic-release@3.4.0

Thanks. I'll give it a go tomorrow morning.

Hi @antongolub

Still the same. it works sometimes and sometimes it fails.

Although the node version might be of more importance, I did also try running the tool from a Windows machine just in case the Mac was causing any issue, but I still got the same behaviour.

See the output below. It contains additional stacktrace that gets printed it when I kill the process with CTRL+C. I didn't include this last week.

Where is the flag? multi-semantic-release --sequential-init

Sorry I didn't realise it was a cmdline arg/flag. I thought you where referring to something within your code.

Anyway, I've tried it again, but it's still the same. The command took 11 mins, then it exited on its own.

$ npm run release

I've also tried running semantic-release directly in each package using lerna exec and interestingly I noticed the same behaviour. So the underlying issue seems to be with semantic-release I guess. I never got this behaviour when I was running semantic-release in the root of the repo before I started using with multi-semantic-release

Hmm...
Could it be some kind of network problem, firewall or something similar?

semantic-release\index.js:57:22

context.branches = await getBranches(options.repositoryUrl, ciBranch, context);

semantic-release\lib\git.js:66:11

return (await execa('git', ['ls-remote', '--heads', repositoryUrl], execaOptions)).stdout
    .split('\n')
    .filter(Boolean)
    .map((branch) => branch.match(/^.+refs\/heads\/(?<branch>.+)$/)[1]);
