Description

I have tried this with 2.5 version ... also with 1.9 git:scm dependency.

I guess it has to do with the WARNINGS shown below. Git itself works without any problems.

The branch is created, but still has the version 1.0-SNAPSHOT. It should have the version 1.0-copy-SNAPSHOT. The version was correct updated in the pom.xml.branch has the correct version information (which I can see with -DdryRun=true)

Following command fails to commit the "next pom" into the branch:

mvn  release:branch -DbranchName=copy-repo-settings -DremoteTagging=false -DupdateBranchVersions=true -DupdateWorking
CopyVersions=false -DreleaseVersion=1.0-copy-SNAPSHOT
