Adds documentation guidance for preserving branch work when using the Git cleanup tool (git-fixer), by describing a manual backup/restore workflow for branches that cannot be merged into main.

Changes:

• Added a “Workaround to Retain Branch Contents” section describing how to back up and recreate branches after cleanup.
• Updated both Ref Guide 10 and Ref Guide (non-10) versions of the “Repository size” troubleshooting page to include the workaround.
