As the subject alludes to, my git root is a folder called /Development and my pom.xml is actually _in_ the /Development folder.
release:prepare works fine, but when release:perform is executed, it attempts to checkout the project from git (which completes successfully). Then it attempts to go to the working directory and run a Maven command. This is where the problem occurs, since the pom.xml is not in the working directory.
