I get the following error output while running the maven release plugin prepare under Microsoft Visual Studio Team Service (VSO)
- Options:
--batch-mode -X -Dtag=$(releaseTag) -DreleaseVersion=$(releaseVersion) -DdevelopmentVersion=$(releaseNextSnapshotVersion) - Goal(s) :
clean release:clean release:prepare - on "repository" / git / "Clean" parameter is set to "true"
Doing the same in the command line or by using Jenkins (and checkout specific branch) works fine. Please notice that for me it's not a duplicate of "Git fatal: ref HEAD is not a symbolic ref" while using maven release plugin because I've not found any solution for VSO.
Full error stack is below. Any ideas how can this be solved?
