Manifest Locking Error when "/" is in the branch name

[Eugene_S]

I would like to use branches named release/*

But when I refer it in `remote_dependency` field I get the error `Manifest Locking Error` `undefined method `repo' for nil:NilClass`.

I suppose that’s because of `/` in the branch name.

I did a test. Created branches “test/test” and “test_test”. 

• If I refer “test_test” it works well

• If I refer “test/test” I have the error

Is it really not possible to use “/” in the branch name?
