[Rock-dev] autoproj snapshot not working on detached HEAD?

[Matthias Goldhoorn]

Hi,
Why pople complaining regarding your question, exactly this push_to 
question is a good example for the use of stackexchange.

And This question is similar, maybe we can discuss this as a feature 
request, but so far this is a straight forward question...

Best,
Matthias
