It's GitHub. If you create a new repository it will automatically suggest you change the name to `main` on the 'setup page'.

  Actually it's in git now. I just got this warning when doing git init . last night. Eh I realized the warning isn't in english but it basically says master will be changed to main and how I could set a global setting and how I could rename a newly created branch.

    > it basically says master will be changed to main It doesn’t do this. Here is the message: hint: Using 'master' as the name for the initial branch. This default branch name hint: is subject to change. To configure the initial branch name to use in all hint: of your new repositories, which will suppress this warning, call: hint: hint: git config --global init.defaultBranch <name> hint: hint: Names commonly chosen instead of 'master' are 'main', 'trunk' and hint: 'development'. The just-created branch can be renamed via this command: hint: hint: git branch -m <name>

      You beat me to it posting that output. Still, the 'This default branch name is subject to change' feels a bit awkward.
