Is this a regression?
- Yes, this behavior used to work in the previous version
The previous version in which this bug was not present was
No response
Description
When we run a build with NG_BUILD_OPTIMIZE_CHUNKS the stats.json file is not updated so it will show build with the old bundles and not the new ones.
This makes it harder to analyse the build output.
Minimal Reproduction
Run ng build --statsJson on any project using the NG_BUILD_OPTIMIZE_CHUNKS environment variable.
Then open the stats.json on https://esbuild.github.io/analyze/
You should clearly notice that the old chunks before the optimization are present and the changes on main are not reflected.
