> When doing 'mvn release:prepare' with a Git provider, a 'git push' command is 
> executed. This is not ideal because the push command can fail or push things 
> from the local repository that are not needed/wanted in the remote 
> repository. Some examples are:
> 1. The local repository has two branches: master (tracking origin/master) and 
> dummy (tracking origin/dummy). The release is being made on the master 
> branch, and the dummy and origin/dummy branches have diverged. Running 
> 'release:prepare' causes a 'git push', which will succeed for the master 
> branch (assuming that the release preparation has been made correctly) and 
> fail for the dummy branch (the two branches have diverged and need to be 
> merged or rebased). The release preparation aborts and the directory is left 
> in a somewhat inconsistent state where manual cleaning up is needed (removing 
> pom.xml.next files, changing versions to <new>-SNAPSHOT, etc.)
> 2. The local repository has two branches: master (tracking origin/master) and 
> localtest (not in the origin repository). The localtest branch shouldn't be 
> published because it is just used for some temporary testing and doesn't even 
> work. It will be pushed during 'release:prepare'.
> Suggested behaviour: use 'git push origin <currentbranch>:<currentbranch>', 
> or even better, query for which remote repository to push to (found in 
> .git/config) and which branch to push from and to. For me, it would be great 
> to have a 'confirm push' before doing it so as to keep things clean, but 
> maybe that is quite complex.
