That error should be changed to:

ERROR: Not a branch or valid bundle: D:/user/Bundle-test/bundle.file.

There is no special command or option -- if a file is a valid bundle, it
will be used.

Most likely, a bad pathname, possibly a malformed bundle.

I like bundle-revisions appearing in the help summary, so I don't have a
problem with updating the examples.

I don't think it's very confusing, but I don't have a problem with
changing it.
