freebsd-update: Cannot upgrade from a version that is not a release
(including alpha, beta and release candidates)
using freebsd-update. Instead, FreeBSD can be directly
upgraded by source or upgraded to a RELEASE/RELENG version
prior to running freebsd-update.
Currently running: 13.0-STABLE

The routine for updating from source is described under 
<https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/cutting-edge/#makeworld>.

The routine also appears, condensed, in /usr/src/UPDATING on your computer.
