[Bug] 5.6.5 Does not recognise master as a source-branch

[WesToleman]

GitVersion 5.6.5 fails to calculate a version for our latest merge to master. "An unexpected error occurred: GitVersion.Configuration.ConfigurationException: Branch configuration 'breaking' defines these 'source-branches' that are not configured: '[master]'".

Expected Behavior

GitVersion calculates a new version for the latest merge to master.

Actual Behavior

It fails to generate a version.

Steps to Reproduce

Use this custom GitVersion configuration. Merge into master, attempt to calculate a new master version.

mode: Mainline
branches:
  breaking:
    regex: breaking[/]
    mode: ContinuousDeployment
    increment: Major
    source-branches: ['master']
    is-release-branch: false
  feature:
    regex: feature[/]
    mode: ContinuousDeployment
    increment: Minor
    source-branches: ['master']
    is-release-branch: false
  bugfix:
    regex: bugfix[/]
    mode: ContinuousDeployment
    increment: Patch
    source-branches: ['master']
    is-release-branch: false
  refactor:
    regex: refactor[/]
    mode: ContinuousDeployment
    increment: Patch
    source-branches: ['master']
    is-release-branch: false
  ci:
    regex: ci[/]
    mode: ContinuousDeployment
    increment: Patch
    source-branches: ['master']
    is-release-branch: false
  ci:
    regex: test[/]
    mode: ContinuousDeployment
    increment: Patch
    source-branches: ['master']
    is-release-branch: false
tag-prefix: 'v'
ignore:
  sha: []

Context

Our master is always shippable so every merge must have a new release version. The custom configuration automatically generates a new version according to the prefix of the merged branch.

Your Environment

Using the GitVersion.CommandLine package on Windows. Fails on both CI Build on TeamCity and locally.

We are facing similar error as reported by WesToleman, today we are unable to generate a build using Azure Devops, and its failing across different branches while calculating the newer version

We are also facing the same issue, and 5.6.4 seems to be working.

@sairamb87 you can update the pipeline step to use exact version until we have a fix.

@lankaapura, Thank you 👍

Yes, 5.6.4 is working fine, and we have already updated our pipelines to use this version, until we get a fix for 5.6.5

[asbjornu]

I assume this is related to #2573.
