rename default branch from 'master' to 'main' in refs and test
scripts
This patch updates Git's default branch name from 'master' to
'main' to
align with modern naming conventions adopted across the industry.
Thank you for your interest in this. We're currently planning to change
the default branch name when Git 3.0 is released as documented in
Documentation/BreakingChanges.adoc.
Oh, sorry it seems I imagined that. I've just checked and there is no
entry in that document about the default branch name. I do think that
the 3.0 release would be a good time to change the default branch name
though.
Thanks
Phillip
