you
simply cloned the Asterisk git repository.  By default the current branch
is the master
branch.  You then did a "git checkout -b 13" which creates a local branch
called "13"
based off of the currently checked out "master" branch.  This "13" branch
is just
another branch of master and not a real 13 branch.  When you tried to put
it up for review
to the real 13 branch using "git review 13", git tried to merge your master
"13" branch
onto the real 13 branch and failed because of conflicts.
