Problems with hotfix:finish

[Karla Jacobsen]

I've hit a snag with the hotfix:finish. I keep getting error messages such as "Error finishing hotfix: Error releasing: Ref hotfix/in/hotfix/1.19.1 can not be resolved". The "hotfix/in" part doesn't look right, but I can't figure out how it's getting in there. I'm trying to run this goal in Jenkins, so that might be part of the problem. Has anyone else seen this or have any suggestions for debugging?

Here is the stack trace for the error:
