Running Gitversion for submodules in Detached HEAD

[alkampfergit]

It would be nice if I could run GitVersion against a submodule of my repository. Actually I would like to run GitVersion on a submodule to determine the SemVer of the submodule actually referenced by my project.

Running GitVersion on submodule gives me an error for running in detached head

It looks like the branch being examined is a detached Head pointing to commit 'fcbf456'. Without a proper branch name GitVersion cannot determine the build version.

Any news or workarounds for that?

You can specify the branch on the command line. /branch feature/foo which will allow it to work I think
