- systemvoltage 6y agoEven if there was one, as noted in the article, context people. Context. Master/Slave nodes and ports are to be found in a lot of hardware. No one in their right mind ever would think of it in terms of horrible atrocities of the past. It’s a technical term. That’s where it ends. Humans are a shitty bunch.
- detaro 6y agoYes and no. Git took the terminology from BitKeeper, which did have master and slave repositories. So while there are no slave anythings in git, git uses the term because of the master-slave meaning.
