Mike McQuaid ac0665daff Refer to default branch in links with HEAD
Anywhere we can use `blob/master` we can use `blob/HEAD` instead. This
will make life easier if we ever rename our default branch in future
(once/if Git and GitHub provides the necessary tooling to do so).

Peter LewisandGitHub 68fc0398ca 'Why haven’t you pulled my pull request?' change
I propose changing 'Why haven’t you pulled my pull request?' to 'Why haven’t you merged my pull request?' as, unless I'm missing a trick, this wording would fit more appropriately with what the question trying to ask?

Mike McQuaid 6e60d3fb59 docs: point to homebrew/install repository.

Issy Long d43aba643d FAQ: Replace Max's pronoun with his name
- For some reason, the documented way of disabling a style for a
  specific section of Markdown text[1] didn't work for disabling the
  pronoun lint here. This is about the only place we have a legitimate
  need for it. Instead, sadly, squash this linting error by using his
  name.
- Also adjust the sentence for further clarity in light of this.

After Issue #985 was merged, bottles for Mavericks are no longer
being built, meaning installations are triggering builds.

Update the FAQ to show that builds will most likely now be
triggers on Mavericks since their bottles are not being generated.
