As the title suggests i am getting this error when i run yarn multi-semantic-release --debug --dry-run the output is as follows:

[01:04:14] [api] › ✖  ERELEASEBRANCHES The release branches are invalid in the `branches` configuration.
A minimum of 1 and a maximum of 3 release branches are required in the branches configuration (https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release/blob/master/docs/usage/configuration.md#branches).

This may occur if your repository does not have a release branch, such as master.

Your configuration for the problematic branches is [].

[multi-semantic-release]: AggregateError: 
    SemanticReleaseError: The release branches are invalid in the `branches` configuration.
        at module.exports .....

I have set up a global .releaserc.json with the following configuration:

{
  "branches": ["master", "next"],
  "plugins": [
    "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
    "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
    "@semantic-release/github",
    "@semantic-release/git",
    "@semantic-release/changelog"
  ]
}

then to be sure i added a local config in each packages containing the following configuration:

{
  "branches": ["master", "next"]
}

Any idea whay it's not detecting the branchs prorety in the config?

This error is getting from semantic-release, it looks like you repositoryUrl or repository.url in package.json file is not a valid repo.
