Cannot update package.json

Here's my .releaserc file which updates changelog.md on each build:

    [
    "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator", {
      "preset": "conventionalcommits"
      },
    ],
    [
      "@semantic-release/git",
      {
          "message": "chore: Release ${nextRelease.version} [skip ci]\n\n${nextRelease.notes}"
      }
    ]

I want to update version number in package.json also. But as soon as I add it to the config:

      "@semantic-release/git",
      {
          "assets": ["package.json"],
          "message": "chore: Release ${nextRelease.version} [skip ci]\n\n${nextRelease.notes}"
      }

it stops to update changelog.md (and doesn't update package.json anyway).

What is the correct way to update both changelog.md and package.json?

Start with the .releaserc configuration and compare the @semantic-release/git assets setting with the existing changelog.md behavior. Verify the release configuration against package.json and confirm that a release updates both package.json and changelog.md.
