Benson Margulies created MRELEASE-800:
-----------------------------------------
Summary: branch has undesirable commit pattern for git
Key: MRELEASE-800
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-800
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: branch, Git
Affects Versions: 2.3.2
Reporter: Benson Margulies
The branch mojo commits as follows if you ask for a new version on the branch
and not in the working copy:
# edit the new version into the working copy
# commit
# branch
# do a 'git revert' to undo the change
This results in a weird history. Better would be:
# checkout -b as it were to make new branch
# edit to put new version in new branch
# commit on new branch
