Description

So if you happen to have a git repository with just say, the 2.0.0 branch on it, which has no tags as of yet, then if you try to do sbt compile it fails to resolve dependencies because the git logic which tries to determine whether you are a snapshot or a tag fails.

This is easy to work around, add any tag, or clone the whole repository, not just one branch.
