Customization of warning or error messages from different plugin tools

If any branch is deleted or access issue and ,we try to do Git pull on that branch in IDz using Egit ,It use to through the error 'problem occured' and after expanding the error it is giving the error message . Pulling 1 repository Remote origin did not advertise Ref for branch refs/heads/feature/testing-Gitpullissue-Oct24. This Ref may not exist in the remote or may be hidden by permission settings. Remote origin did not advertise Ref for branch refs/heads/feature/testing-Gitpullissue-Oct24. This Ref may not exist in the remote or may be hidden by permission settings. However if we are doing the same Git pull operation outside the IDz then it is giving the warning only . We should have feature in the Idz so that we can customize our error message which will say that the issue is due to branch deletion or access or other so It will not throw the error and pull operation should not be cancelled

    Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us. At this time, your request for enhancement is not currently aligned with our product strategy and vision and we have no plans to address your request in the near future. As we discussed this we do believe the solution would be with Egit which is Open Source Software that IDz utilizes. You may also try your suggestion with Egit.

    Again, thank you for your suggestion and continued support.
