Can't use organizations with hyphen in its name

[vromero]

Running with an organzation with hyphen in its name like:

• <connection>https://github.com/org-name/reponame</connection>
• <connection>scm:git:git@github.com:org-name/reponame.git</connection>
  will return Failed to create release: https://api.github.com/repos/https:/ -> [Help 1].

Although a simple change to:

• <connection>https://github.com/orgname/reponame</connection>

Will change the error (now because the org does not exist) to: Failed to create release: https://api.github.com/repos/orgname/reponame -> [Help 1]

This leads me to suspect that there is an error while parsing the scm configuration.
