Right. The only reason to use `advise()` would be to allow users to
squelch the warning by setting `advice.*`.

On the other hand, warnings are not colored, but advice messages are.

And now I realize that the same holds for `init.defaultBranch`: it is also
self-squelching. And it also might benefit from the coloring to make it
stand out a bit.

Thoughts?
