Hey, is renaming the branch from master to main a topic of discussion or ever has been? - I'd like to keep this non-political if it's the way it is that's ok

GitHub started to use
main
as default branch years ago. You don’t necessarily have to rename
master
in the current repositories. But if you have tools taking main as default branch years, you need to think about it.

100% on board with you @adamant-lawyer-19698, it's work. I didn't know if anything external was pointing at this repository, if not the work can be contained within a pull request. It was more of a wide "oh did anyone talk about this yet"
b
+1 to renaming to main.
