You are probably reading this because the above solutions have not worked for you. I had the same issue and I tried everything mentioned here. My versions were: maven-release-plugin 2.5 and git 1.7.9

The solution that worked for me was downgrading maven-release-plugin to version 2.3.2

    
        
            org.apache.maven.plugins
            maven-release-plugin
            2.3.2
            
                true
