Review die(), error() and warning() messages used in branch, following the guidelines we have in Documentation/CodingGuideLines. Mainly: Error messages - Do not end error messages with a full stop. - Do not capitalize the first word, ... "%s" and "'%s'" was used to format a branch name in different messages. "'%s'" has been used to normalize as it's the more frequently used in this file and very common in the rest of the codebase. The tests affected by the modified messages have been updated. Signed-off-by: Rubén Justo <rjusto@gmail.com> --- From v1, many changes, non substantial for the objective of the patch, has been left out. This is a minor patch, but I don't want to leave it behind as I have been delaying this in my previous patches for branch.c, so as not to mix those changes with this, but this needs to be done. Some future work might be done, maybe after some new guidelines be defined. I leave here some quick notes related that might be useful to that possible discussion: - quoting related to values: branches, refs, hashes, ... - quoting related to literals: HEAD, options, commands, config, ... - informative messages going to stdin or stderr - capitalize informative or advice messages - full stop on informative messages - pool of frequent common errors (ie: no branch named...) --word-diff can be useful to review this patch.
