I'm trying to build on OS X and get the following:

[robey]

that's weird. it looks like it crashes when trying to find out what git revision you're building from. is there anything notable about your git checkout folder?

[pivmark]

You're right, I managed to clone it into a folder that was already a git repo. Switched and now it works fine. Closing this issue.

[stuhood]

This also happens when there are no commits in the local git repo (freshly initialized).

[mmao]

I got this error from switching to a tag and then triggering the build. My sequence:

git clone https://github.com/robey/kestrel.git pushd kestrel git checkout org=net.lag,name=kestrel,version=2.1.5 ~/bin/sbt clean update package-dist

The kestrel path did not exist prior to that first clone. In deference to the last comment, I touched and commited an empty file to my checkout, and reran. Still the same error.

[stuhood]

This is usually because your current git head is not parseable. For example, while you've checked out a particular sha (which puts you in a detached-head state), publish will fail. In the case of a tag, you might not have a corresponding branch name (or something readable) actually checked out.

[robey]

i think standard-project 1.0.4 may have just fixed the "you have no branch" bug.
