Unlike with a SVN workspace the release:prepare goal in a Git workspace seems to not error-out when it sees untracked (git status results in ??) files. I have seen this on windows.
In some cases it was not mentioning the files at all (they are shown in -X debug output) in other cases it was printing a warning that it does not understand ?? file. [WARNING] Ignoring unrecognized line: ?? file.txt The files are not ignored, neither by the releaseBackup patterns nor by .gitignore. Any idea if this is a bug? I havent found a bug mentioning this, but this bug here shows an example for the warning: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRELEASE-881 My Path contains GitHubs "git 4 windows" in version 1.9.5.github.0 36047 [INFO] Verifying that there are no local modifications... 36050 [INFO] ignoring changes on: **\pom.xml.next, **\release.properties, **\pom.xml.branch, **\pom.xml.tag, **\pom.xml.backup, **\pom.xml.releaseBackup 36114 [INFO] Executing: cmd.exe /X /C "git status --porcelain" 36116 [INFO] Working directory: C:\ws\github\jabylon 36363 [DEBUG] ?? dirty.txt 36427 [DEBUG] ?? pom.xml.releaseBackup 36428 [DEBUG] ?? release.properties 36444 [INFO] Checking dependencies and plugins for snapshots ...
