> branch fails with git provider when not on a branch
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MRELEASE-540
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-540
> Project: Maven Release Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: branch
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Maarten Billemont
>
> When running release:branch while not on a branch tip, maven fails because
> the git provider tries to look up the symbolic-ref of the current commit and
> push this. This should not be fatal; when no symbolic-ref is found for the
> current commit, the plugin should not fail.
> This is keeping me from adding release:branch to <goals> such that a
> maintenance branch is automatically created when the release is performed.
