We had a maven multi module project where a module was unfortunately named
"master".
This caused a problem when working on the Git master branch:
Provider message: The git-log command failed. Command output:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From file:///foo/bar * branch master -> FETCH_HEAD
fatal: ambiguous argument 'master': both revision and filename Use '--' to
separate filenames from revisions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our workaround was to rename the "master" module to "master-module" and
reflect that in the parent pom which lists all the module directories.
