Maven - Error Releasing Code to GitHub (Hangs After Push)

Question

I\'m attempting to run the mvn release:prepare goal and it\'s hanging after the push. Any idea what I could be doing wrong?

Answer 1

The only thing which worked for me was specifying GIT user name and password as maven parameters:

mvn -Dusername=jenkins -Dpassword=******** release:prepare release:perform

To hide password in Jenkins output console I installed and configured Mask Passwords Plugin.
