Fixes #2598
Previous message sounded like literal branches rather than Gitversion branch "types". Also gave hints on checking local repo meets Gitversion requirements or to use dynamic repositories.
Description
Previous message sounded like literal branches rather than Gitversion branch "types". Also gave hints on checking local repo meets Gitversion requirements or to use dynamic repositories.
Motivation and Context
The existing error message tries to use quotes to indicate these are not actual branch names - but this is easily misleading as the quotes can be taken to mean literalness rather than "Gitversion develop". The problem can also occur when the local repository clone or checkout do not follow the requirements, but the literal branches "develop" and "main" are actually present.
How Has This Been Tested?
It's just a message text change.
