[MRELEASE-535] release:branch poked trunk poms

Description

I ran the following:

mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-release-plugin:2.0:branch -Prelease -DbranchName=segmentation -DupdateBranchVersions=true -DupdateWorkingCopyVersions=false

It failed. However, before it failed, it checked new poms into the trunk that had the scm and version info for the branch.

What I expected it to do was (1) create the branch, and (2) edit the poms in the branch, leaving the trunk untouched.

Further, release:rollback failed with an NPE when I ran it after the failure to try to unwind this mess.
