I'm attempting to update a version number in packages.json and then have that committed and pushed back to GitHub (back to the branch it was from). I'm getting not on a branch errors:

    $configFile = "$env:APPVEYOR_BUILD_FOLDER\package.json"
    
    $j = Get-Content $configFile | ConvertFrom-Json
    
    $j.version = $env:APPVEYOR_BUILD_VERSION
    
    $j | ConvertTo-Json | set-content $configFile
    
    git add 'package.json'
    
    git commit -m 'v$env:APPVEYOR_BUILD_VERSION'
    
    git push

Results in : git : fatal: You are not currently on a branch.

   By default AppVeyor check out specific commit and it is detached. You may need to add git checkout master. Also please read this part of documentation to learn how to deal with credentials.
