The fsm_settings__get_incompatible_msg() function returns an allocated
string. So we can't pass its result directly to warning(); we must hold
on to the pointer and free it to avoid a leak.
The leak here is small and fixed size, but Coverity complained, and
presumably SANITIZE=leaks would eventually.

When the repository does not yet have commits, some errors describe that
there is no branch:
$ git init -b first
$ git branch --edit-description first
error: No branch named 'first'.
$ git branch --set-upstream-to=upstream
fatal: branch 'first' does not exist
$ git branch -c second
error: refname refs/heads/first not found
fatal: Branch copy failed
That "first" branch is unborn but to say it doesn't exists is confusing.
Options "-c" (copy) and "-m" (rename) show the same error when the
origin branch doesn't exists:
$ git branch -c non-existent-branch second
error: refname refs/heads/non-existent-branch not found
fatal: Branch copy failed
$ git branch -m non-existent-branch second
error: refname refs/heads/non-existent-branch not found
fatal: Branch rename failed
Note that "--edit-description" without an explicit argument is already
considering the _empty repository_ circumstance in its error. Also note
that "-m" on the initial branch it is an allowed operation.
Make the error descriptions for those branch operations with unborn or
non-existent branches, more informative.
This is the result of the change:
$ git init -b first
$ git branch --edit-description first
error: No commit on branch 'first' yet.
$ git branch --set-upstream-to=upstream
fatal: No commit on branch 'first' yet.
$ git branch -c second
fatal: No commit on branch 'first' yet.
$ git branch [-c/-m] non-existent-branch second
fatal: No branch named 'non-existent-branch'.

Two documentation issues exist in the technical docs for the bundle URI
feature.
First, there is an extraneous "the" across a linebreak, making the
nonsensical phrase "the bundle the list" which should just be "the
bundle list".
Secondly, the asciidoc update treats the string "`have`s" as starting a
"<code>" block, but the second tick is interpreted as an apostrophe
instead of a closing "</code>" tag. This causes entire sentences to be
formatted as code until the next one comes along. Simply adding a space
here does not work properly as the rendered HTML keeps that space.
Instead, restructure the sentence slightly to avoid using a plural,
allowing the HTML to render correctly.
