provide more errors for the "merge into empty head" case
A squash merge into an unborn branch could be implemented by building the index from the merged-from branch, and doing a single commit, but this is not supported yet. A non-fast-forward merge into an unborn branch does not make any sense, because you cannot make a merge commit if you don't have a commit to use as the parent.
