References not showing when appendix is added

I have installed the latest demo of bookdown. I added a citation in one of the chapters and it appears at the end of the chapter and under References, which is fine.
However, when I add appendix.Rmd, the citation(s) disapears from References. If appendix.Rmd is deleted, the citation appears back in References.

index.Rmd

title: "Introduction to Statistics in Kinesiology"
author: "Ovande Furtado, Jr., Ph.D."
date: "`r Sys.Date()`"
site: bookdown::bookdown_site
documentclass: book
bibliography:
- book.bib
- packages.bib
description: |
  This is a minimal example of using the bookdown package to write a book.
  set in the _output.yml file.
  The HTML output format for this example is bookdown::gitbook,
link-citations: yes
github-repo: rstudio/bookdown-demo

appendix.Rmd

# (APPENDIX) Appendix {-}
# Chapter 1

Every thing else is default.

Is this still an issue ?

If so, are you able to provide a reproducible example ? Or steps to follow so that I can reproduce.

Just so we are clear, References are always added at the end of the document, unless you specific the position differently.

See last part of 2.8 Citations | bookdown: Authoring Books and Technical Documents with R Markdown and also moreover this recipe placing Reference section before appendix

I followed your instructions and it worked. Thank you.
