Description

When running release:branch while not on a branch tip, maven fails because the git provider tries to look up the symbolic-ref of the current commit and push this. This should not be fatal; when no symbolic-ref is found for the current commit, the plugin should not fail.

This is keeping me from adding release:branch to <goals> such that a maintenance branch is automatically created when the release is performed.
