Since c2d17ba3db0d (branch --edit-description: protect against mistyped
branch name, 2012-02-05) we return -1 on error editing the branch
description.

Let's change to 1, which follows the established convention and it is
better for portability reasons.

Nicely explained.  As ret is initialized to 1 to assume failure (and
we set it to 0 when we are happy), the change to stop assigning the
return value from error() is a very sensible implementation, too.

Will queue.  Thanks.
