No, what I meant was

	$ git checkout v1.5.0
	Checking out a tag -- you are not on any branch now...
        $ ls -l .git/HEAD
        -rw-rw-r-- 1 junio junio 41 2006-12-29 09:51 .git/HEAD
	$ git branch
          master
        $ git commit -m 'fix' -a; echo $?
        You cannot commit without the current branch.
        0
        $ git checkout -b maint-1.5.0
        $ git commit -m 'fix' -a
