I'm trying to create a branch using the Repository#createBranch method but it throws an empty error "{}". Could you guys take a look at what I'm doing wrong ?

exports.createBranch = function (req, res) {
    var branchName = req.body["branch_name"];
    var name = req.body["name"];
    var email = req.body["email"];
    var message =  "branch {0} created".format(branchName);
    NodeGit.Repository.open(config.database).then(function (repo) {
        return repo.getHeadCommit();
    }).then(function (commit) {
        var signature = NodeGit.Signature.now(name, email);
        return repo.createBranch(branchName, commit, 0, signature, message);
    }).then(function (branch) {
        console.log(branch);
        res.status(200).json({message: "OK", data: branch.toString()});
    }).catch(function (err) {
        res.status(500).json({message: err, data: []});
    }).done(function () {
        console.log("finished");
    });
};

The line res.status(500).json({message: err, data: []}); gets called with an empty err object "{}".

Uh oh!
