Can't release when on branch using git
--------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-580
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-580
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: perform
Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-8
Environment: linux, Fedora 13, x86_64, using sun java 1.6.0_14
Reporter: Brian Kramer
After creating a bug fix branch in git we can't perform a release on the
branch. The release:prepare works just fine, but the release:perform doesn't
checkout the branch to build.
Steps taken:
git checkout -b bug_fix_branch
...Make necessary changes...
git push
mvn release:prepare
mvn release:perform
When the clone on the perform action occurs it clones "master" and not
"bug_fix_branch" and then subsequently pulls in changes from the tag that was
created that aren't valid for master, which has since moved forward.
