Merge branch 'document-need-owner-or-master-permission-for-initial-push' into 'master'

document the need to be owner or have the master permission level for the initial push ## What does this MR do? It documents the new behavior as discussed on gitlab-org/gitlab-ce#22543, because the `/protected_branch` URL of empty repository is not available and could mislead users. ## Are there points in the code the reviewer needs to double check? Don't think so ## Why was this MR needed? When you create a repository on GitLab, command line instructions on its home page for the use case _"Existing folder or Git repository"_ invite you to `git push -u origin master`, but the very first push is now rejected if you are not `Owner` or attributed `Master` permission. ## Screenshots (if relevant) ![Capture_d_écran_2016-09-30_à_14.55.20](/uploads/6ee2d36b4a32cb3a5faa68a10c1813f0/Capture_d_écran_2016-09-30_à_14.55.20.png) ## Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria? - [ ] [CHANGELOG](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/CHANGELOG) entry added - [ ] [Documentation created/updated](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/development/doc_styleguide.md) - [ ] API support added - Tests - [ ] Added for this feature/bug - [ ] All builds are passing - [ ] Conform by the [merge request performance guides](http://docs.gitlab.com/ce/development/merge_request_performance_guidelines.html) - [ ] Conform by the [style guides](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#style-guides) - [ ] Branch has no merge conflicts with `master` (if you do - rebase it please) - [ ] [Squashed related commits together](https://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Tools-Rewriting-History#Squashing-Commits) ## What are the relevant issue numbers? - new behavior was introduced here : gitlab-org/gitlab-ce@71dec8b1b61e9e194d242d37b39416b72020936b - lack of documentation was discussed at gitlab-org/gitlab-ce#22543 See merge request !6608
