Add mouseover+tooltip to reveal subtext of the Publish button?

See original GitHub issue

When attempting to publish an unborn repo, you should be able to read the entire message in the subtext of the Publish branch button. Currently it is cutoff leaving certain users wondering what the entire message is.

Should we surface a dialogue or make the button longer? Perhaps best solution is just mouseover+tooltip?

Tooltip is certainly a viable option here though I wonder if we couldn’t make the messaging even more compact and rid ourselves of the problem that way. In this case we’re talking about an unborn HEAD, not necessarily an unborn repository. And the context is Publish branch so I’m thinking we could just say 'Cannot publish unborn branch` here instead.

@tierninho I think that’s the progress message whenever a push/pull/fetch is happening, which is separate to this. But I still favour @niik’s idea of making it more concise to avoid the need for a tooltip.
